  M'Pherson's Farewell

  Tune—“M'Pherson's Rant.”

  Farewell, ye dungeons dark and strong,

  The wretch's destinie!

  M'Pherson's time will not be long

  On yonder gallows-tree.

  Chorus.—Sae rantingly, sae wantonly,

  Sae dauntingly gaed he;

  He play'd a spring, and danc'd it round,

  Below the gallows-tree.

  O, what is death but parting breath?

  On many a bloody plain

  I've dared his face, and in this place

  I scorn him yet again!

  Sae rantingly, &c.

  Untie these bands from off my hands,

  And bring me to my sword;

  And there's no a man in all Scotland

  But I'll brave him at a word.

  Sae rantingly, &c.

  I've liv'd a life of sturt and strife;

  I die by treacherie:

  It burns my heart I must depart,

  And not avenged be.

  Sae rantingly, &c.

  Now farewell light, thou sunshine bright,

  And all beneath the sky!

  May coward shame distain his name,

  The wretch that dares not die!

  Sae rantingly, &c. Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
