Hielan Laddie

Where ha' ye been a' the day?
Bonnie laddie, Hielan' laddie.
Saw ye him that' far awa'
Bonnie laddie, Hielan' laddie.

On his head a bonnet blue
Bonnie laddie, Hielan' laddie.
Tartan plaid and Hielan' trews,
Bonnie laddie, Hielan' laddie.

When he drew his gude braid-sword,
Then he gave his royal word.
Frae the field he ne'er wad flee,
Wi' his friends wad live or dee.

Geordie sits in Charlie's chair,
But I think he'll no bide there.
Charlie yet shall mount the throne,
Weel ye ken it is his own.
