[Maddy Prior, June Tabor - Burning of Auchindoon lyrics]
As I came in by Fiddich side on a May morning
I spied Willie Macintosh an
Hour before the dawning
"Turn again, him again, turn again I bid ye
If ye burn Auchindoon
Huntly he will head ye"
"Head me or hang me that will never fear me
I will burn Auchindoon ere
The life leaves me"
As I came in by Fiddich side on a May morning
Auchindoon was in a blaze an
Hour before the dawning
Crawing, crawing, for all your crowse crawing
You've burnt your crops and tint your wings
An hour before the dawning
I spied Willie Macintosh an
Hour before the dawning
"Turn again, him again, turn again I bid ye
If ye burn Auchindoon
Huntly he will head ye"
"Head me or hang me that will never fear me
I will burn Auchindoon ere
The life leaves me"
As I came in by Fiddich side on a May morning
Auchindoon was in a blaze an
Hour before the dawning
Crawing, crawing, for all your crowse crawing
You've burnt your crops and tint your wings
An hour before the dawning
