Where the raven flaps her glossy

wing and the fell fox has his den,
There the shepherds they are 
C                F               
gathering up wi' monie a guid 
    Am
yauld grew,

An' wiry terrier game an' keen an' 
 Dm                  Am

Am                                
Thro' yon wild glen they view him 
          G                 Am
now right for the Yearning Linn,
                         C      
By cairn an' crag, o'er moss and 
            F                Am
hagg, sae glorious was the din;
                          C        
Weel dune, hurrah! they've run him 
             F               Am
doun, yon's Moudy twirls him now,
                      C            
The hunt is done, his brush is won,
   Dm               Am
 I hear the death halloo.

Hark away! Hark away!
