| Horo, My Nut
Brown Maiden Horo, my nut brown maiden Hiri, my nut brown maiden Horo, ro maiden For she's the maid for me. Chorus: Her eye so mildly beaming Her look so frank and free In waking and in dreaming Is evermore with me. Oh Mary, mild-eyed Mary By land or on the sea Though time and tide may vary My heart beats true to thee. Chorus: With thy fair face before me How sweetly flew the hour When all thy beauty o'er me Came streaming in its power. Chorus: The face with kindness glowing The face that hides no guile The light grace of thy going The witchcraft of thy smile. Chorus: And when with blossoms laden Bright summer comes again I'll fetch my nut brown maiden Down from the bonny glen. Chorus: |
