Hush-a-ba, burdie, croon, croon
Hush-a-ba, burdie, croon;
The sheep are gane tae the siller wood,
An the coos are gane tae the broom, broom.

O it's braw milkin the kye, kye,
O it's braw milkin the kye;
The birds are singin, the bells are ringin,
An the wild deer come gallopin by.

Hush-a-ba burdie, croon, croon,
Hush-a-ba burdie, croon,
The gaits are gane tae the mountain hie,
An they'll no be hame till noon.
