downie dens of yarrow lyrics
[verse 1]
there was a lady in the north
i ne’re could find her marrow
she was courted by nine gentlemen
and a poor plowboy frae yarrow

[verse 2]
these nine sat drinkin at the wine
sat drinkin wine in yarrow
an they made a plot amang themselves
tae fecht for her on yarrow

[verse 3]
he says, “there’s nine o’ you and but one o’ me
it’s an unequal marrow”
but i’ll fecht ye all one by one
on the dowie dens o’ yarrow

[verse 4]
she’s combed his hair, she’s washed his face
as she had done before o
she’s dressed him like a brave young knight
to fight fae her in yarrow

[verse 5]
as he went up yon high, high hill
and doon with the homes of yarrow
it was there he saw nine armed men
come tae fight fae her in yarrow
[verse 6]
and there they flew, and there he slew
an’ there he’s wounded sorely
’til her brother, john, came in beyond
and he wounded him most foully

[verse 7]
as she went up yon high, high hill
an’ doon be the homes of yarrow
it was there she saw her own true love
lyin’ pale and wanned on yarrow

[verse 8]
her hair it bein three quarters lang
the colour of it was yellow
she’s wrapped it round his middle sae small
an she bore him doon tae yarrow

[verse 9]
“oh, faither dear, ye hae seiven sons
you may wed them all tomorrow
for the fairest flower among them all
lies dead and wan on yarrow.”
