Go, fetch to me a pint o' wine And fill it in a silver tassie That I may drink before I go A service to my bonnie lassie The boat rocks at the pier o 'leith Fu' loud the wind blaws frae the Ferry The ship rides by the berwick-law And I maun leave my bonnie mary
The trumpets sound, the banners fly The glittering spears are ranked Ready
The shouts o' war are heard afar The battle closes deep and bloody
Go, fetch to me a pint o' wine And fill it in a silver tassie That I may drink before I go A service to my bonnie lassie It's not the roar o' sea or shore Wad mak me langer wich to tarry! Nor shouts o' war that's heard afar It's leaving thee, my bonnie mary! The trumpets sound, the banners fly The glittering spears are ranked Ready
The shouts o' war are heard afar The battle closes deep and bloody
