Bonny at Morn

Irish Harp and Voice: Barbary
Uilleann Pipes: Eric Rigler

The sheep are in the meadow and the kye (cows) are in the corn,
Thou lies ower lang (over long) in thy bed, bonny at morn.

Chorus: Canny at e’en (evening), bonny at morn,
Thou lies ower lang in thy bed, bonny at morn.

We’re a’ laid idle wi’ the keepin’ o’ the bairn (baby),
The lad winnae (will not) work and the lass winnae learn. 

The birdie’s in the nest and the trout is in the burn (stream),
Thou hinders thy mother at every turn.     SCOTLAND
