Licht’s a harebell on the Ben
Straucht’s a thrissle doon the glen
Bob an birl like Jenny Wren
Tae daunce the Heilan fling oh

Like a stag wi kinnelt bluid
Airm, razzed heich abune her heid
Ilkie step, a patterned threid
Tae daunce the Heilan fling oh

Velvet jaiket, siller braid
Kilt an bonnet, tartan plaid
Brooch an buckle fur the maid
Tae daunce the Heilan fling oh

Hear the rousin bagpipe skirl
Gars the pulse tae stoun an dirl
She maun lowp an hooch an birl
Tae daunce the Heilan fling oh.
