1. Her eye so mildly beamin' Her look so frank and free In wakin' and in dreamin' Is ever more with me! Refrain: Ho ro, my nut brown maiden! Ho ro, my nut brown maiden! Ho ro, ro, maiden! For she's the maid for me! 2. Oh, Mary, mild eyed Mary By land or on the sea, Though time and tide may vary, My heart beats true to thee! 3. With thy fair face before me How sweetly flew the hour When all thy beauty o'er me Came streamin' in its' power!

4. And since from thee I parted A long and weary while, I wander, heavy hearted, With longin' for thy smile. 5. The face with kindness glowin' The face that hides no guile The light grace of thy goin' The witchcraft of thy smile! 6. Mine eyes that never vary From pointin' tae the glen Where blooms my Highland Mary Like wild rose 'neath the ben. 7. And when with blossoms laden Bright summer comes again, I'll fetch my nut brown maiden Down from the bonny glen!
