“ Toil for bare war’ly treasure.
To the lads o’ the north
⁠Ev’ry day brings its pleasure,
Tho' simple are the joys
⁠The brave highlanders possesses.
Yet he feels no annoys,
⁠For he fears no distresses.
Now the simmer is in prime,
⁠Wi’ the flow’rs richly blooming ;
And the wild mountain thyme,
⁠A’ the moorlands perfuming,
To our dear native scenes.
⁠Let us journey together,
Where glad innocence reigns
⁠’Mang the braes o’ Balquhither.
