The love that I have chosen I therewith be content
And the salt sea shall be frozen before that I repent
Repent it shall I never until the day I dee
But the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me

My love lies in the salt sea and I am on the side
It's enough to break a young things heart that lately was a bride
That lately was a bonny bride with pleasure in her e'e
But the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me

My love has built a bonny ship and he set her on the sea
With seven score good marinas to bear her company
But there's three score sunk m'lads and three score dead at sea
And the lowlands of Holland has twined my love and me

My love has built another ship and set her on the sea
With nane but twenty marinas for to bring her home to me
But the weary wind began to rise the sea began to roll
And my love and his bonny ship turned with the shins about

There shall nae a quiff come on my head nor comb come in my hair
There shall neither coal or candlelight shine in my bower mair
And neither will I marry until the day I dee
For I never had a love but one and he's drowned in the sea

On hold your tongue my daughter dear be still and be content
There's men enough in Galloway you need not so lament
There's men enough in Galloway alas there's none for me
For I never had a love but one and he's drowned in the sea
