Me wee bundle oh joy

Naething(nothing) is left, one has nae(no) clues.

The way I feel lies in the pit

(Bottom) of me(my) Hert(Heart).

I wish me(my) laddie(son) wis(was) here.

I wish we were ne'er ( never ) apart.

Folk (people) ask whits (what's) wrang (wrong) wi (with) ye (you).

When I am glum (down) and nae(no) full oh(of) joy. If only they ken't (knew) how much I miss me( my )

Boy.


He wis (was) once a wee ( little ) bundle oh(of ) joy so innocent and pure.

His Daith (death) wis(was) drastic, even more than tragic.

He chose to dee (die) and leave his mither (mother) behind.

Which wis (was) cruel and unkind.

His life must have been stuck in a dark tunnel.

Wi (with) the  lights turned oot (out).

He wis (was) as frightened as a rabbit in  a  furrow.

His world caved in aw(all) aboot( about), squeezed him tighter tae (too) the ground.

He wis(was) tired, he nae(no) longer kid(could) hold on.

He geed(gave) up and decided tae(to) gan (go) it alone.

He is gone

I nae ( no )  can touch him his world  is nae (no ) longer  dim.

I light  me (my ) candle  before  I rest.

I lie (lay) and  weep (cry ) as he  wis (was) the  best.

Me ( my ) laddie ( son )me

(My)  laddie  (son) has gone away.

Till ( until )  I dee ( die) I'll think oh ( of ) him each dae ( day ).

In me ( my ) hert ( heart ) He  is  here  to stay.
