Part 3 — The Northumbrian’s Sigh for his native Country.
Reading edition
At home wad I be, And my supper wad I see, And marry with a lass Of my own country. If I were at hame, I wad ne’er return agean, But marry with a lass In my own country. There’s the oak and the ash, And the bonny ivy tree; How canst thou gan away, love, And leave me? O stay, my love, stay, And do not gang away; O stay, my love, stay, Along with me.
