O' That I Where Helen Lies

(Robert Burns poem / Live on Peel 01-22-04)

O' that I were where Helen
and day on me she cries
O' that I were Helen lies
In fair lee

O' Helen fair compare
A of thy flowing hair
I'll wear it still for ever
the day I die

Curs'd be the gun shot the shot
And be the hand that gave the crack
my arms bird Helen lap
And died for o' me

O' na ye but my heart was sair
My love fell down and nae mair
did she swoon wi meikle care
On Kirkconnel lee

I lighted down, my sword did
I cutted him in sma'
I cutted him in sma'
On Kirkconnel lee

O' Helen chaste, wert modest
If I with thee I were blest
Where thou lies low and takes thy
On Kirkconnel lee

I my grave was growing green
A winding sheet put o'er my
And I in Helen's lying
In fair lee

I wish I were Helen lies
and day on me she cries
O' I were where Helen lies
On fair lee
