| 1. Oh! where, tell me where is your Highland laddie gone? Oh! where, tell me where is your Highland laddie gone? He’s gone with streaming banners, where noble deeds are done. And its oh in my heart, I wish him safe at home. |
3. Oh what, tell me what, does your Highland laddie wear? Oh what, tell me what, does your Highland laddie wear? A bonnet with a lofty plume, and on his breast a plaid And it’s oh, in my heart I lo’ed my Highland lad |
| 2. Oh! where, tell me where, did your Highland laddie dwell? Oh! where, tell me where, did your Highland laddie dwell? He dwelt in bonnie Scotland, where blooms the sweet blue bell, And it’s oh in my heart, I lo’e my laddie well. |
4. Oh! what, tell me what, if your Highland lad be slain? Oh! what, tell me what, if your Highland lad be slain? Oh, no! True love will be his guard, and bring him safe again. For it’s oh, my heart would break, if my Highland lad be slain. |
