face till my heart was like to break;
They gi'ed him my hand,but my heart was at the sea;
Sae auld Robin Gray he was gudeman to me.
I hadna been a wife a week but only four,
When mournfu'as I sat on the stane at the door,
I saw my Jamie's wraith,for I couldna think it he,
Till he said,I'm come hame to marry thee.
O sair,sair did we greet,and muckle did we say;
We took but ae kiss,and I bad him gang away;
I wish that I were dead, but I'm no like to dee;
And why was I born to say,Wae's me?
I gang like a ghaist,and I carena to spin;
I daurna think on Jamie,for that wad be a sin;
But I'll do my best a gude wife aye to be,
For auld Robin Gray he is kind unto me.
（Lady Anne Lindsay）
