Felton Lonnin - Rachel Unthank And The Winterset

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me bairn

I'd rather loss all

The kye than loss me hinny

I'd rather loss all the kye

Than loss me bairn

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me bairn

I'd rather loss all

The kye than loss me hinny

I'd rather loss all

The kye than loss me bairn

Fresh faced is me hinny

His blue eyes are bonny

His hair in curled ringlets

Hung sweet to the sight

So mount the old pony

Seek after me hinny

Bring back to his mammy her only delight

He's always out roaming the lang summerday through

He's always out roaming away from the farm

Through hedges and ditches and valleys and hillsides

I hope that me hinny may come to no harm

Well I've searched in the meadow and in the far acre

Through stockyard and byre

But nowt could I find

So off you go daddy seek after your laddie

Bring back to his mammy some peace to her mind

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

But I see not me bairn

I'd rather loss all

The kye than loss me hinny

I'd rather loss all

The kye than loss me bairn

The kye's come hyem

I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

I see not me bairn

The kye's come hyem

I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

I see not me bairn

The kye's come hyem

I see not me hinny

The kye's come hyem

I see not me bairn

I see not me bairn

I see not me bairn

I see not me bairn

I see not me bairn bairn

I see not me bairn

I see not me bairn
