Hame（1 / 1）

nithsdale's welcome hame

the noble maxwells and their powers

are coming o'er the border,

and they'll gae big terreagles' towers

and set them a' in order.

and they declare terreagles fair,

for their abode they choose it;

there's no a heart in a' the land

but's lighter at the news o't.

tho' stars in skies may disappear,

and angry tempests gather;

the happy hour may soon be near

that brings us pleasant weather:

the weary night o' care and grief

may hae a joyfu' morrow;

so dawning day has brought relief,

fareweel our night o' sorrow.
