Says, "Gin ye'll be my leman sae true
Dm Am
This gudely gift, it shall be thine"

She's muttered sic words as my senses failed

I fell doon senseless tae the ground

When the seely coort came riding by

The queen's lichtit doon on a gowany bank
Dm Am
Nae far fae the tree whaur I did lie
[Verse 8]
G
An' she's ta'en oot her silvery wand

She straked it three times o'er her knee
G
She's turned me back tae ma proper shape
Dm Am
Nae mare tae toddle aroond the tree
