Maxwelton's braes are bonnie 

Where early fa's the dew 

And 'twas there that Annie Laurie 

Gave me her promise true. 

Gave me her promise true 

Which ne'er forgot will be 

And for bonnie Annie Laurie 

I'd lay me doon and dee. 

Her brow is like the snowdrift 

Her throat is like the swan 

Her face it is the fairest 

That e'er the sun shone on. 

That e'er the sun shone on 

And dark blue is her e'e 

And for bonnie Annie Laurie 

I'd lay me doon and dee. 

Like dew on th'gowan lying 

Is th' fa' o'her fairy feet 

And like the winds in summer sighing 

Her voice is low and sweet. 

Her voice is low and sweet 

And she's a' the world to me 

And for bonnie Annie Laurie 

I'd lay me doon and dee.
