Nan of Logie Green

By pleasure long infected,

Kind heaven when least expected

My devious path directed

to Nan of Logie green;

Where thousand sweets repose 'em

In quiet's unruffled bosom,

I found my peerless blossom,

the pride of Logie green.

The city Belle, perchance, ay,

Will blame my youthful fancy,

But she ne'er saw my Nancy

the pride of Logie green.

Her cheek the vermeil rose is,

Her smile a heaven discloses,

No lily leaf that blows is,

so fair on Logie green.

Ye town bred fair forgive me,

Your arms must ne'er receive me,

Your charms are all believe me

eclipsed on Logie green.

Forgive my passion tender,

Heaven so much grace did lend her,

And made my heart surrender

to Nan of Logie green.

No more the town delights me,

Its noisy tumult frights me,

I'll go where love invites me,

to Nan of Logie green.

My heart shall ne'er deceive her,

I ne'er in life shall leave her,

In love and peace for ever,

we'll live on Logie green.
