As I went doon to Strichen toon,
I heard a fair maid mourning,
And she was making sair complaint
For her true love ne'er returning.
So fare ye weel, ye Mormond Braes,
Where often I've been cheery;
Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes,
For it's there I lost my dearie.
There's many a horse has snappert an' fa'en
And risen again fu' rarely.
There's many a lass has lost her lad
And gotten another right early.
So fare ye weel, ye Mormond Braes,
Where often I've been cheery;
Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes,
For it's there I lost my dearie.
There's as good fish into the sea
As ever hae been taken.
I'll cast my line and I'll try again
For I'm only ainst forsaken.
So fare ye weel, ye Mormond Braes,
Where often I've been cheery;
Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes,
For it's there I lost my dearie.
So I'll go doon to Strichen toon,
Where I was bred and born in,
And there I'll find another sweetheart
Will marry me in the mornin'
So fare ye weel, ye Mormond Braes,
Where often I've been cheery;
Fare ye weel ye Mormond Braes,
For it's there I lost my dearie.
The Corries were a Scottish folk group that emerged from the Scottish folk revival of the early 1960s. Although the group was a trio in the early days, it is best known as the partnership of Roy Williamson and Ronnie Browne. Williamson, singer and guitarist, came from a musical family and had already experience in traditional Scottish singing before forming The Corries. Browne, a versatile musician, mainly played fiddle, mandolin and banjo. Their musical style was characterized by original arrangements of traditional Scottish songs, often with a modern touch. Among the most famous songs by The Corries are "Flower of Scotland", which became the unofficial national anthem of Scotland, and "The Laird o'Cockpen". The group enjoyed great success in the 1960s and 1970s, releasing numerous albums and performing at music festivals worldwide.
