Текст песни: Mally Leigh + перевод

When Mally Leigh came down the street, a wind blew

mightily

And flew the hat and cloak and all from bonny Mally

Leigh

And down along the Canongate were lads of all degree

Who sighed to see the comely shape of bonny Mally Leigh

And we’re all gone East and West, we’re all gone, aye,

ajee

We’re all gone East and West, a-courting Mally Leigh

She wore two ribbons in her hair that flaunted

gallantly

And ribbons at the back and breast of bonny Mally Leigh

And with every bob her ribbons made, each lad thought,

That’s for me

But ne’er a one was in the thoughts of bonny Mally

Leigh

And when she reached the palace porch, there stood

lairdies three

And each one turned him round about to glance on Mally

Leigh

The dance went through the palace hall, a comely sight

to see

And none was there so bright and fair as bonny Mally

Leigh

The Prince came out from among them all with garters at

his knee

And danced a stately minuet with bonny Mally Leigh

Though some wore jewels in their hair that shown so

brilliantly

Yet, Mallie did surpass them all with a red and rosie

cheek

But Hieland Brodie floored them all with a proud and

glancing eye

He’s won for aye the heart and hand of bonny Mally

Leigh
