This a version from 1929 which has kept more of the original Scots words: chorus: Ay waukin', O Waukin' aye and weary, Sleep I can get nane For thinkin' o' my dearie. Aye waukin' O! Simmer's a pleasant time Flowers o' ev'ry colour The water rins ower the heugh, And I long for my true lover When I sleep I dream When I wauk I'm eerie, Sleep I can get nane For thinkin' o' my dearie. Lanely nicht comes on A' the lave are sleepin' I think on my true love And bleer my een wi' greetin'.
Summer's a pleasant time Flowers of every colour The water runs o'er the heugh And I long for my true lover Aye waukin-O Waukin still and weary Sleep I can get nane For thinking of my dearie Ay waukin, O When I sleep I dream When I wake I'm eerie Sleep I can get nane For thinking of my dearie Aye waukin-O Waukin still and weary Sleep I can get nane For thinking of my dearie Ay waukin, O Lonely night comes on And all the lave are sleepin' I think on my bonnie lad And blur my eyes wi' weepin' Aye waukin-O Waukin still and weary Sleep I can get nane For thinking of my dearie Ay waukin, O Waukin still and weary Sleep I can get nane For thinking of my dearie Ay waukin, O
This version replaces some of the Scots words and pronunciations originally used by Burns e.g "And bleer my een wi greetin" instead of "And blur my eyes wi' weepin'" . This is not a good thing because it undermines the Scots Language and the words are not so different that an English speaker could not easily find out their meaning. Also, as a Scot, I love to hear those beautiful old Scots words which make the song more special for me. That being said this is musically probably the best version of the this song that I have heard with a wonderful performance from Eddi.
wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful song....
A wonderful interpretation.
This a version from 1929 which has kept more of the original Scots words:
chorus: Ay waukin', O
Waukin' aye and weary,
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin' o' my dearie.
Aye waukin' O!
Simmer's a pleasant time
Flowers o' ev'ry colour
The water rins ower the heugh,
And I long for my true lover
When I sleep I dream
When I wauk I'm eerie,
Sleep I can get nane
For thinkin' o' my dearie.
Lanely nicht comes on
A' the lave are sleepin'
I think on my true love
And bleer my een wi' greetin'.

Summer's a pleasant time
Flowers of every colour
The water runs o'er the heugh
And I long for my true lover
Aye waukin-O
Waukin still and weary
Sleep I can get nane
For thinking of my dearie
Ay waukin, O
When I sleep I dream
When I wake I'm eerie
Sleep I can get nane
For thinking of my dearie
Aye waukin-O
Waukin still and weary
Sleep I can get nane
For thinking of my dearie
Ay waukin, O
Lonely night comes on
And all the lave are sleepin'
I think on my bonnie lad
And blur my eyes wi' weepin'
Aye waukin-O
Waukin still and weary
Sleep I can get nane
For thinking of my dearie
Ay waukin, O
Waukin still and weary
Sleep I can get nane
For thinking of my dearie
Ay waukin, O
