|
| Here’s tae yer sisters and brothers
|
| Those wi the bonnie blue een
|

|
| Of them that are happy and glad
|
| And those who would never say never
|
| Oh rarely downcast and sad
|
| May you prosper for ever and ever
|

|
| And their lassies that rove in the morning
|
| Here’s tae the gullible pair
|
| Never listening nor heeding the warning
|
| Here’s tae the lads in the band
|

|
| And tae the bonnie new bairn
|
| May the wind and the rain never stop her
|

|
| Here’s tae the lassies that matter
|
| Here’s tae the rascal that ran
|
| And the stuff that ye tak wi yer watter
|
| Here’s tae the fool on the hill
|
| And his pals that are down in the valley
|
| Oh they drink down a half wi their gill
|
| Never thinking nor checking the tally
|
| Here’s tae the boys on the park
|
| And them that head down tae the paddock
|
| Here’s tae the song o the lark
|
| And the lads that are netting the haddock
|
| May their days be long and fulfilled
|
| May their hours be happy and cheery
|
| And may all of yer wishes come true
|
| And your hearty self never be weary
|
| Here’s tae yer ain kith and kin
|
| Here’s tae yer sisters and brothers
|
| Those wi the bonnie blue een
|
| And the hundreds and thousands of others
|
| Of them that are happy and glad
|
| And those who would never say never
|
