~ETTRICK~

Written & performed by Archie Fisher

When we first rade, down Ettrick,
Our bridles were ringing, our hearts were dancing,
The water was singing, the sun was glancing,
And blithely our voices rang out together,
As we brushed the dew, frae the blooming heather,
When first we rade, doon Ettrick.

When we next rade, doon Ettrick,
The day was dying, the wild birds calling,
The wind was sighing, the leaves were falling,
And tired and weary, but closer together,
We urged our steeds, through the faded heather,
When next we rade, doon Ettrick.

When I last rade, doon Ettrick,
The wind was shifting, the storm was waking,
The snows were drifting, my heart was breaking,
For never again would we ride together
In sun or storm, on the mountain heather,
When last I rade, doon Ettrick.
