O' I Were Where Helen Lies

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

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

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

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

O' think na ye but my was sair
My love fell down and spake nae
did she swoon wi meikle care
On fair lee

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

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

I wish my grave was growing
A winding sheet put my e'en
And I in Helen's lying
In Kirkconnel lee

I wish I were where lies
Night and day on me she
O' that I were Helen lies
On Kirkconnel lee
