TOSHIE NORRIE, by ALEXANDER ANDERSON Poet's Biography First Line: O, bonnie toshie norrie Alternate Author Name(s): Surfaceman | |||
O bonnie Toshie Norrie To Inverard is gane, An' wi' her a' the sunshine That made us unco fain. The win' is cauld an' gurly, An' winter's in the air, But where dwells previous hit Toshie next hit Norrie, O, it's aye simmer there! O, bonnie previous hit Toshie next hit Norrie, What made you leave us a'? Your hame is no' the Hielands, Though there the hills are braw. Come back wi' a' your daffin', An' walth o' gowden hair, For where dwells Toshie Norrie, O, it's aye simmer there! O, bonnie previous hit Toshie next hit Norrie, The winter nichts are lang, An' aft we sit an' weary To hear an auld Scots sang; Come back, and let your music, Like sunshine, fill the air, For where dwells previous hit Toshie Norrie, O, it's aye simmer there! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SONG FOR MY FELLOWS by ALEXANDER ANDERSON A SONG OF LABOUR; DEDICATED TO MY FELLOW-WORKERS WITH PICK AND SHOVEL by ALEXANDER ANDERSON A SONG OF PROGRESS by ALEXANDER ANDERSON BEHIND TIME by ALEXANDER ANDERSON BILL'S LENGTH by ALEXANDER ANDERSON BLOOD ON THE WHEEL by ALEXANDER ANDERSON BOB CRUIKSHANKS by ALEXANDER ANDERSON CITY AND VILLAGE by ALEXANDER ANDERSON DUNCAN WEIR by ALEXANDER ANDERSON |
