W:O Mary, mild-eyed Mary,
W:By land, or on the sea,
W:Though time and tide may vary,
W:My heart beats true to thee.
W:
W:In Glasgow or Dunedin
W:Were maidens fair to see;
W:But ne'er a Lowland maiden
W:Could lure mine eyes from thee.
W:
W:Mine eyes that never vary
W:From looking to the glen,
W:Where dwells my Highland Mary
W:Like wild-rose 'neath the Ben.
W:
W:And when with blossom laden,
W:Bright summer comes again,
W:I'll fetch my nut-brown maiden
W:Down frae the bonnie glen.
