ROWAN TREE
LADY CAROLINA NAIRN

Oh   rowan tree, oh rowan tree, thoul't aye be 
-6   7  -6 6
dear to me,-
4 -4 5      5    5   -4  5 6  -6    6  6    5
En  -twin'd thou art wi' mony ties, o' hame and

in-fan-cy.

Thy leaves were aye the first o' spring, thy

flowr's the sim- mer's- pride-
4   -4 5   5   5  -4 5  6   -6    6  6   5
There- was nae sic a bonnie tree, in all the 
-4  4   4     4 -4 5 -4  4
country side. Oh - rowan tree.

How fair wert thou in simmer time, wi' all thy clusters white.
Now rich and gay thy autumn dress, wi' berries red and bright
On thy fair stem were mony names which now nae mair I see.
But there engraven on my heart, forgot they ne'er can be.
Oh rowan tree.

We sat aneath thy spreading shade, the bairnies round thee ran
They pu'd thy bonnie berries red and necklaces they strang.
My mither, oh, I see her still, she smil'd our sports to see,
Wi' little Jeannie on her lap, wi' Jamie at her knee.
Oh rowan tree.

Oh, there arose my father's pray'r in holy evening's calm,
How sweet was then my mither's voice in the martyr's psalm
Now a' are gane! we met nae mair aneathe the rowan tree,
But hallowed thoughts around thee twine o' hame and infancy,
Oh rowan tree.
