	As I cam o’er by Bonny Moor Hill*
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	I met a wee lass, and they ca’ed her Nell
	Longing to be a sweet lover o mine
	It’s questions three I’ll ask o thee
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	And it’s questions three you maun answer me
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	You maun mak me a cambric shirt
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	Withoot one stitch o your needlework
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	You maun wash it in yonder well
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	Where water ne’er ran and rain never fell
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	Then dry it oot on yonder thorn
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	Where blossom ne’er bloomed since Adam was born
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	It’s questions three you’ve asked o me
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	And it’s questions three you’ll noo answer me
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	You maun get me an acre of land
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	Atween the saut sea and sea water strand
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	Then plough it aa wi an auld ram’s horn
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	And then sow it o’er wi one grain of corn
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	You maun sheer it with a sickle of leather
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	And bind it up wi a peacock’s feather
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	Then stook it o’er on yonder sea
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	And bring the shell sheaf dry unto me
	Before you are a sweet lover o mine
	When you’ve done and finished your work
	Every rose grows bonny in time
	You may call untae me for your cambric shirt
	And you shall be a sweet lover o mine
