SongMy Hoggie（1 / 1）

song—my hoggie

what will i do gin my hoggie die?

my joy, my pride, my hoggie!

my only beast, i had nae mae,

and vow but i was vogie!

the lee-lang night we watch'd the fauld,

me and my faithfu' doggie;

we heard nocht but the roaring linn,

amang the braes sae scroggie.

but the houlet cry'd frau the castle wa',

the blitter frae the boggie;

the tod reply'd upon the hill,

i trembled for my hoggie.

when day did daw, and cocks did craw,

the morning it was foggie;

an unco tyke, lap o'er the dyke,

and maist has kill'd my hoggie!
