Come, cuddle doon,
Wee bairn upon my breast,
While songs o' dreams I softly croon;
Warm as a wee bird
Sheltered in the nest,
Close in my arms, dear,
Come, cuddle doon.
Cuddle doon, cuddle doon,
Bonny bird o' my heart,
Cuddle doon;
Cuddle doon, cuddle doon,
Bonny bird o' my heart,
Cuddle doon.

Come, cuddle doon,
Your daddy is awa',
And hame he'll be returning soon;
One day, my darling,
Ye'll be big and bra',
Now, while I keep thee,
Come, cuddle doon.
Cuddle doon, cuddle doon,
Bonny bird o' my heart,
Cuddle doon;
Cuddle doon, cuddle doon,
Bonny bird o' my heart,
Cuddle doon.
