The Deidly Wars Are Past And Gane Lyrics

THE DEIDLY WARS ARE PAST AND GANE

For the deidly wars are passed and gane

  and gentle peace returning

Left mony's the sweet babe faitherless

  and mony's the widow mourning

I left the lines and the tented field

  whaur I'm no longer a lodger

A humble knapsack, it's a' my wealth

  I'm a poor but honest sodger

A lea-licht hert was in my brest

   my hands unstained wi' plunder

It's all for Scotia hame again

  I cheery on did wonder

I thocht upon the banks of Coille

  I thocht upon my Nancy

I thocht upon her bewitching smile

  that stole my youthful fancy

Norman Kennedy gor this from Jeannie Robertson

  who thought it was Robert Burns
