[Verse 1]
EmMirk and rainy Dis the night
There' Cno' a staurn in a' the Emcarry
Lightnings gleam a-Dthwart the lift
And Cwinds drive wi' winter's Emfury
[Chorus]
GOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
DOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
EmLet me in, for Gloud the linn
Is Croarin' o'er the warlock Emcraigie
[Verse 2]
EmFearfu' soughs the Dboortree bank
The Crifted wood roars wild and Emdreary.
Loud the iron Dyett does clank,
And Ccry of howlets makes me Emeerie.
[Chorus]
GOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
DOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
EmLet me in, for Gloud the linn
Is Croarin' o'er the warlock Emcraigie
[Verse 3]
AEmbune my breath I Ddaurna speak
For Cfear I rouse your waukrife Emdaddie;
Cauld's the blast uDpon my cheek,
O Crise, rise my bonnie Emlady.
[Chorus]
GOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
DOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
EmLet me in, for Gloud the linn
Is Croarin' o'er the warlock Emcraigie
[Verse 4]
She Emoped the door, she Dlet him in
He Ccuist aside his dreepin' Emplaidie.
'Blaw your warst, ye Drain and win'
Since, CMaggie, now I'm in aEmside ye.
[Chorus]
GOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
DOh, are ye sleeping, Maggie?
EmLet me in, for Gloud the linn
Is Croarin' o'er the warlock Emcraigie
[Verse 5]
Now, Emsince ye're wauken, DMaggie,
Now, Csince ye're wauken, EmMaggie,
What care I for Dhowlet's cry,
For Cboortree bank or warlock Emcraigie.
