«Annie Laurie» is an old Scottish song based on poem by William Douglas (1672?-1748) of Dumfries and Galloway. The words were modified and the tune was added by Alicia Scott in 1834/5. The song is also known as Maxwelton Braes.
- Lyrics -
Maxwellton braes are bonnie
Where early fa's the dew
And it's there that Annie Laurie
Gied me her promise true
Gied me her promise true
Which n'er forgot shall be
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me down an' dee
Her brow is like the snawdrift
Her neck 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 down and dee
Like dew on the gowan lyin'
Is the fa' of her fairy feet
And like winds in summer sighin'
Her voice is low and sweet
Her voice is low and sweet
And she's a' the world tae me
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me down and dee
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I'd lay me down and dee
