Oh rowan tree, oh rowan tree
Thou`lt aya be dear to thee
Entwined thou art wi` many ties
O`hame and infancy
Thy leaves were aye the first of spring
Thy flowers the summer`s pride
There was nae sic a bonnie tree
In a` the country side
Oh rowan tree
How fair was thou in summer time
Wi` a`thy clusters white
How rich and gay thy autumn dress,
Wi` berries red and bright!
On thy fair stem were mony names
Which now nae mair i see
But they`re engraven on my heart,
Forget they ne`er can be
Oh rowan tree
We sat aneath thy spreadin` shade
The bairnies round thee ran
They pu`d they bonnie berries red,
And necklaces they strang
My mither, oh! i see her still,
She smil`d our sports to see
Wi` little jeannie on her lap,
And jamie on her knee
Oh rowan tree
Oh there arose my father`s pray`r
In holy ev`ning`s calm
How sweet was them my mother`s voice,
In the martyrs` psalm
Now a`are gane!
We meet nae mair aneath the rowan tree
But hallow`d thoughts around thee twine
O`hame and infancy
