  The Bonie Moor-Hen

  The heather was blooming, the meadows were mawn,

  Our lads gaed a-hunting ae day at the dawn,

  O'er moors and o'er mosses and mony a glen,

  At length they discover'd a bonie moor-hen.

  Chorus.—I rede you, beware at the hunting, young men,

  I rede you, beware at the hunting, young men;

  Take some on the wing, and some as they spring,

  But cannily steal on a bonie moor-hen.

  Sweet—brushing the dew from the brown heather bells

  Her colours betray'd her on yon mossy fells;

  Her plumage outlustr'd the pride o' the spring

  And O! as she wanton'd sae gay on the wing.

  I rede you, &c.

  Auld Phoebus himself, as he peep'd o'er the hill,

  In spite at her plumage he tried his skill;

  He levell'd his rays where she bask'd on the brae—

  His rays were outshone, and but mark'd where she lay.

  I rede you,&c.

  They hunted the valley, they hunted the hill,

  The best of our lads wi' the best o' their skill;

  But still as the fairest she sat in their sight,

  Then, whirr! she was over, a mile at a flight.

  I rede you, &c. Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
