Текст песни: The Elfin Knight + перевод

There stands three trumpeters on yon hill

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

Blaw their trumpets sae loud and shrill

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Gin I’d his trumpet in my kist

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

And were in the lad’s arms that I like best

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Gin ye would be wed wi' me

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

There’s ae thing ye maun dae for me

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

I maun hae a fine linen sark

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

Without a stitch o' needlewark

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Ye maun wash it in yon draw-well

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

Where water never sprang nor fell

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Ye maun drt’t on yon hawthorn

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

That hasna seen blossom since man was born

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Gin I mak’a sark for thee

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

There’s ae thing ye maun tae me dae

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

My faither has an acre o' land

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

Ye maun ploo it wi' your ae hand

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Ye maun sow it wantin' corn

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

And roll it wi' a sheep’s shank-bone

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Ye maun shear it wi' a scythe o' leather

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

And bind it wi' a peacock’s feather

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

Ye maun stook it in the sea

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

And bring the whaetsheaf dry tae me

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'

And gin you wark noo all this wark

Blaw, blaw, blaw winds, blaw

Come to me and you’ll get your sark

And the wind blaws aye my plaid awa'
