Lyrics:
1. We'll meet beside the dusky glen, on yon burnside,
Where the bushes form a cosy den, on yon burnside;
Though the broomy knowes be green,
Yet there we may be seen;
But we'll meet, we'll meet at e'en, down by yon burnside.
2. I'll lead thee to the birken bow'r, on yon burnside,
Sae sweetly wove wi' woodbine flow'r, on yon burnside;
There the mavis we will hear,
And the blackbird singin' clear,
As on my arm ye lean, down by yon burnside.
3. The plantin' taps are ting'd wi' gowd, on yon burnside,
And gloamin' draws her foggy shroud, o'er yon burnside;
Far frae the noisy scene,
I'll through the fields alane,
There we'll meet, my ain dear Jean! down by yon burnside,
down by yon burnside.
