The Young Chevalier

Charlie is my darling; my darling
Charlie is my darling; the young chevalier

As he was walking up the street, the city for to view
O, there he spied a bonnie lass, the window looking through
Charlie is my darling; my darling
Charlie is my darling; the young chevalier

Sae light's he jumped up the stair, and tirled at the pin
And wha sae ready as hersel, to let the laddie in
Charlie is my darling; my darling
Charlie is my darling; the young chevalier

He set his Jenny on his knee, all in his Highland dress
For brawly weel he kent the way to please a bonnie lass
Charlie is my darling; my darling
Charlie is my darling; the young chevalier

It's up yon heathery mountain, and down yon scraggy glen
We daurna gang a-milking, for Charlie and his men
Charlie is my darling; my darling
Charlie is my darling; the young chevalier .
