Poem by Robert Burns

Bannocks o’ Barley

BANNOCKS o’ bear meal,
  Bannocks o’ barley;
Here’s to the Highlandman’s
  Bannocks o’ barley.
Wha in a brulzie
  Will first cry a parley?
Never the lads wi’
  The bannooks o’ barley.

Bannocks o’ bear meal,
  Bannocks o’ barley;
Here’s to the lads wi’
  The bannocks o’ barley;
Wha in his wae-days
  Were loyal to Charlie?
Wha but the lads wi’
  The bannocks o’ barley.

1. Their Groves O’ sweet Myrtle
2. The Bonnie Wee Thing
3. As Down the Burn They Took Their Way
4. The Humble Petition of Bruar Water
5. How Lang and Dreary
