oh the trees they are high, and the grass is growing green
and many’s the day and night have passed that i alone have been
it is a cruel and bitter night that i must lie alone
for my bonnie lad is lang, lang-a-growing

oh father dearest father, you have done what’s very wrong
you have married me to a bonnie lad but i feel he is too young
for he is only 15 years and i am 21
he’s a bonnie lad but lang,lang-a-growing

oh daughter dearest daughter, i have done you no wrong
for i have wedded you to a n0ble mans son
and he will be a man for you whеn i am dead and gone
he’s a bonniе lad but lang, lang-a-growing

oh father dearest father, i’ll tell you what we’ll do
we’ll send him off to college for another year or two
and all around his college cap we’ll bind a ribbon blue
for to let the ladies know that he’s married

a year it went by and i passed the college wall
and there i saw the college boys and they all playing ball
i spied him in amongst them,the fairest of them all
he’s a bonnie lad but lang,lang-a-growing

at the age of 15 years he was a married man
at the age of 16 years he was the father of a son
at the age of 17 o’er his grave the grass grew green
cruel death had put an end to his growing
i’ll buy my love a shroud of the ornamental brown
and while they are making it, the tears they will run down
it’s once i had a true love but now he’s lying low
but i’ll watch his bonnie son while he’s growing
