Sweet（1 / 1）

mally's meek, mally's sweet

chorus—mally's meek, mally's sweet,

mally's modest and discreet;

mally's rare, mally's fair,

mally's every way complete.

a barefit maid i chanc'd to meet;

but o the road was very hard

for that fair maiden's tender feet.

mally's meek, c.

were weel laced up in silken shoon;

an' 'twere more fit that she should sit

within yon chariot gilt aboon,

mally's meek, c.

her yellow hair, beyond compare,

comes trinklin down her swan-like neck,

and her two eyes, like stars in skies,

would keep a sinking ship frae wreck,

mally's meek, c.
