<song>
This aye nighte, this aye nighte,
—Refrain: Every nighte and alle,
Fire and fleet and candle-lighte,
—Refrain: And Earth receive thy soul.

When thou from hence away art past
To Whinny-muir thou com'st at last

If ever thou gavest hosen and shoon,
Sit thee down and put them on
;
If hosen and shoon thou ne'er gav'st nane
The whinnes shall prick thee to the bare bane.

From Whinny Moor when thou may'st pass,
To the great fire thou com'st at last;

If ever thou gavest meat or drink,
The fire sall never make thee shrink;

If meat or drink thou ne'er gav'st nane,
The fire will burn thee to the bare bane;

This aye night, this aye night,
—Every nighte and alle,
Fire and sleet and candle-light,
—And Earth receive thy saule.
