11Now westlin winds and slaught'rin' guns,Now westlin' winds and slaughtering guns
22Brings Autumn's pleasant weather; Bring autumn's pleasant weather;
33The gorcock springs, on whirring wingsThe muircock springs, on whirring wings,
44Amang the blooming heather: Amang the blooming heather.
55Now waving grain, wide o'er the plain,Now waving grain, wide o'er the plain,
66Delights the weary farmer; Delights the weary farmer;
77The moon shines bright as I rove by nightAnd the moon shine's sic bright, when I rove at night,
88To muse upon my charmer. To muse upon my charmer.
99
1010We'll gently walk and sweetly talk,The partridge loves the fruitful fells;
1111While the silent moon shines clearly; The plover loves the mountains;
1212I'll clasp thy waist, and, fondly prest,The woodcock haunts the lonely dells;
1313Swear how I lo'e thee dearly; The soaring hern the fountains.
1414Not vernal showers to budding flowers,Through lofty groves the cushat roves,
1515Not autumn to the farmer, The path of man to shun it;
1616So dear can be as thou to me,The hazel bush o'erhangs the thrush,
1717My fair, my lovely charmer. The spreading thorn the linnet.
18
19Thus every kind their pleasure find
20 The savage and the tender;
21Some social join, and leagues combine;
22 Some solitary wander:
23Avaunt, away! the cruel sway,
24 Tyrannic man's dominion;
25The sportsman's joy, the murdering cry,
26 The flutt'ring, gory pinion.
27
28But, Peggy dear, the evening's clear,
29 Thick flies the skimming swallow;
30The sky is blue, the fields in view,
31 All fading green and yellow:
32Come let us stray our gladsome way,
33 And view the charms of nature;
34The rustling corn, the fruited thorn,
35 And every happy creature.
36
37We'll gently walk and sweetly talk,
38 Till the silent moon shines clearly;
39I'll grasp thy waist, and fondly press't,
40 And swear I love thee dearly.
41Not vernal showers to budding flowers,
42 Not autumn to the farmer,
43So dear can be as thou to me,
44 My fair, my lovely charmer!
