Bessy Bell and Mary Gray

 

O Bessie Bell and Mary Gray, They war twa bonnie lasses; 

They bigget a bower on yon burn-brae, And theekit it oer wi rashes. 

They theekit it oer wi rashes green, They theekit it oer wi heather; 

But the pest cam frae the burrows-town, And slew them baith thegither. They thought to lye in Methven kirk-yard, Amang their noble kin; 

But they maun lye in Stronach haugh, To biek forenent the sin. 

And Bessy Bell and Mary Gray, They war twa bonnie lasses;

They biggit a bower on yon burn-brae, And theekit it oer wi rashes.
