    My husband's mother used to sing this song in the vaudeville theatre in Glasgow and the whole city clapped and cheered her. She had a beautiful voice and used to sing for extra cash as she was very poor and her husband was away at war. This was during WWII. As I hear this it makes me want to cry. My husband died 15 years ago and I love and miss him so much!

      My condolences for your loss. Even though it was 15 years ago, I'm sure you feel the absence of your husband deeply. I learned to sing this song about 15 years ago to sing it for my wife on our anniversary. I certainly didn't sing as beautifully as this singer, but I think my wife was touched. She died almost exactly one year ago, much too young at age 70 and still as beautiful as the first day I saw her 50 years ago. This is now one of the special songs I sing in remembrance of her. Peace to you.

I didn't know anything about scottish song, or scottish poet, I never knew that, never. Last Novermber 2015, my heart is belong to the scottishman who is giving me the true love that I keep with me forever. Life is so weird and beautiful.

      No doubt he would, but he borrowed some lines from earlier writers for his lyrics, and this tune is not the one he chose for his original setting - which was a fiddle tune by Niel Gow (Major Graham's Strathspey). It never became as popular as this traditional tune, 'Low down in the broom' which was chosen later by R.A. Smith.
