Will Ye No Come Back Again

Country: Scotland
Langauge: Scottish

Genre: Ballad, British Folk

A classic Scottish ballad found on the Smithsonian Folkways “Songs of Two Rebellions: The Jacobite Wars of 1715 and 1745 I Scotland.” There are several versions on YouTub, but bot by any singer more Scottish-looking than this guy.

Bonnie Charlie’s now away
Safely over the friendly main;
Many a heart will break in two,
Should he no’ come back again.

 

Will ye no’ come back again?
Will ye no’ come back again?
Better loved ye canna be,
Will ye no come back again?
