Thou Hast Left Me Ever, Jamie

    thou hast left me ever, jamie

    tune—“fee him, father, fee him.”

    thou hast left me ever, jamie,

    thou hast left me ever;

    thou has left me ever, jamie,

    thou hast left me ever:

    aften hast thou vow'd that death

    only should us sever;

    now thou'st left thy lass for aye—

    i maun see thee never, jamie,

    i'll see thee never.

    thou hast me forsaken, jamie,

    thou hast me forsaken;

    thou hast me forsaken, jamie,

    thou hast me forsaken;

    thou canst love another jo,

    while my heart is breaking;

    soon my weary een i'll close,

    never mair to waken, jamie,

    never mair to waken!
