Laird, there’s a youth at your castle

who says he’s your heir

He has piercing dark eyes

and raven black hair

So prepare the King’s horses and summon my men

We’ll return to the castle through Cairneagle Glen

Page, the youth at my castle

has he scars on his chin?

Does he bring along others

to bear weapons for him?

Aye, the youth at your castle

has a hundred and more

They grabbed maidens and mead

upon forcing the door

So prepare the King’s horses and summon my men

We’ll return to the castle through Cairneagle Glen

Page, the youth at my castle

has he blood on his knife?

Is he received by the queen

my very own wife?

Aye, the youth at your castle

was met by the queen

And he sits by her side

for all the court to be seen

So prepare the King’s horses and summon my men

We’ll return to the castle through Cairneagle Glen

For the youth at my castle

we will sharpen our spears

And now move with great haste

so he gets no more years!

So prepare the King’s horses and summon my men

We’ll return to the castle through Cairneagle Glen
