Dainty Davie

Now rosy May comes in wi' flowers,
To deck her gay, green spreading bowers;
And now comes in my happy hours,
To wander wi' my Davie. —

Chorus

Meet me on the warlock knowe,
Dainty Davie, Dainty Davie;
There I'll spend the day wi' you,
My ain dear dainty Davie. —

The crystal waters round us fa',
The merry birds are lovers a',
The scented breezes round us blaw,
Awandering wi' my Davie. —

Meet me &c.
As purple morning starts the hare,
To steal upon her early fare,
Then through the dews I will repair,
To meet my faithfu' Davie. —

Meet me &c.
When day, expiring in the west,
The curtain draws o' Nature's rest,
I'll flee to his arms I lo'e the best,
And that's my ain dear Davie. —

Chorus

Meet me on the warlock knowe,
Bonie Davie, dainty Davie;
There I'll spend the day wi' you,
My ain dear dainty Davie. —
