 430. Song—Dainty Davie by Robert Burns 
						NOW rosy May comes in wi’ flowers,To deck her gay, green-spreading bowers;
 And now comes in the happy hours,
 To wander wi’ my Davie.
 
 
 Chorus.—Meet me on the warlock knowe,
 Dainty Davie, Dainty Davie;
 There I’ll spend the day wi’ you,
 My ain dear Dainty Davie.
 
 
 The crystal waters round us fa’,
 The merry birds are lovers a’,
 The scented breezes round us blaw,
 A wandering wi’ my Davie.
 Meet me on, &c.
 
 
 As purple morning starts the hare,
 To steal upon her early fare,
 Then thro’ the dews I will repair,
 To meet my faithfu’ Davie.
 Meet me on, &c.
 
 
 When day, expiring in the west,
 The curtain draws o’ Nature’s rest,
 I flee to his arms I loe’ the best,
 And that’s my ain dear Davie.
 Meet me on, &c.
