1. There lived twa sisters in ane bower,
Minnorie, o, Minnorie:
And there cam' a young man to be their wooer,
On the bonnie damsides o' Minnorie.
2. He coorted the eldest wi' a' his land,
Minnorie, o, Minnorie:
He coorted the youngest wi' his right hand.,
On the bonnie damsides o' Minnorie.
.3. He gied the elder a brooch and ring,
Minnorie, o, Minnorie:
But he lo'ed the youngest abune a' thing
On the bonnie damsides o' Minnorie.
4. He coorted the eldest wi' his penknife,
Minnorie, o, Minnorie:
He lo'ed the youngest abune his life,
On the bonnie damsides o' Minnorie.
5. "O, sister, o, sister, ye'll gang to the broom,"
Minnorie, o, Minnorie:
"To hear the blackbird change his tune,
And we'll maybe see the lads o' Minnorie.
6. They walked up and they walked doon,
Minnorie, o Minnorie:
And thrice the blackbird changed his tune,
But they never saw the lads o' Minnorie.
