[Verse 1]
GI've heard them liltin',D at the Cewe miDlkin,'
GLasses a-liltin' bDefore dawn ofG day.
DBut now Fthey are moCanin', on Gilka greeCn loanDin'.
The Gflowers of the Cforest areD a' wede Gaway.
[Verse 2]
GAs boughts in the mornin', nDae blithe lCads are Dscornin',
GLasses are lonely aDnd dowie and Gwae.
DNae daffFin', nae gaCbbin', butG sighin' Cand soDbbin',
Ilk Gane lifts her lCeglin, andD hies herG away.
[Verse 3]
GAt e'en in the gloamin',D nae swankies Care roDamin',
G'Mang stacks wi' the lasseDs at bogle toG play.
DBut ilk Fmaid sits dCrearie, laGmentin' hCer deaDrie,
The Gflowers of the Cforest areD a' wede Gaway.
[Verse 4]
GIn har'st at the shearin' Dnae youths now Care jeDerin'
GBandsters are runkled, Dand lyart, orG grey.
DAt fair For at preacChin', nae Gwooin', nCae fleDecin',
The Gflowers of the Cforest areD a' wede Gaway.
[Verse 5]
GDool for the order sent our lDads to tChe BorDder,
Gthe English for ance bDy guile wan tGhe day.
DThe flowFers of the Cforest, thGat foughtC aye tDhe foremost,
The Gprime of our laCnd lie cauDld in theG clay.
[Verse 6]
GWe'll hae nae mair liltin', aDt the ewCe milkDin',
GWomen and bairns aDre dowie and Gwae.
DSighin' Fand moanin'C on ilka gGreen loanCin', D
The Gflowers of the Cforest areD all wedeG away.
