O Saw Ye My Maggie

1

Saw ye my Maggie?
Saw ye my Maggie?
Saw ye my Maggie?
Comin oer the lea?

2

What mark has your Maggie,
What mark has your Maggie,
What mark has your Maggie,
That ane may ken her be?

3

My Maggie has a mark,
Ye'll find it in the dark,
It 's in below her sark,
A little aboon her knee.

4

What wealth has your Maggie,
What wealth has your Maggie,
What wealth has your Maggie,
In tocher, gear, or fee?

5

My Maggie has a treasure,
A hidden mine o' pleasure,
I'll howk it at my leisure,
It 's alane for me.

6

How loe ye your Maggy,
How loe ye your Maggy,
How loe ye your Maggy,
An loe nane but she?

7

Ein that tell our wishes,
Eager glowing kisses,
Then diviner blisses,
In holy ecstacy! —

8

How meet you your Maggie,
How meet you your Maggie,
How meet you your Maggie,
When nane 's to hear or see?

9

Heavenly joys before me,
Rapture trembling o'er me,
Maggie I adore thee,
On my bended knee!!!
