‘But wha will bake my bridal bread,
An brew my bridal ale,
And wha will welcome my bride hame,
Is mair than I can tell.’

‘It's I will bake your bridal bread,
And brew your bridal ale,
But wha will welcome your bride hame,
It'll need tae be yersel.’

An she's hung up a silken towel
Upon a golden pin,
[OMITTED] tae wipe her een,
As she gaed but and ben.
