Macpherson's Rant

Fareweel ye dungeons dark and strong,
The wretch’s destiny
MacPhersons time will no be lang,
On yonder gallow's tree
 
It was by a woman's treacherous hands
That I was condemned tae dee
She stood uben a windae ledge
And a blanket threw o'er me
 
Sae rantingly, sae wantonly
An’ sae dauntingly gaed he
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallows tree
 
Oh what is death, but parting breath
On mony’s a bloody plain
I've daur'd his face, and in his place
I scorn him yet again
 
Sae rantingly, sae wantonly
An sae dauntingly gaed he
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallows tree
 
I have lived a life o' straught and strife
I die by treachery
It burns my heart that I must depart
An no avenged be
 
Sae rantingly, sae wantonly
An sae dauntingly gaed he
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallows tree
 
So tak off these bands fae round my hands
Gae to me my sword
For there’s no a man in a' Scotland
But I'll brave him at a word
 
Sae rantingly, sae wantonly
An sae dauntingly gaed he
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallows tree
 
So farewell night o parting light
And all beneath the sky
May coward shame disdain his name
The wretch that dare not die
 
Sae rantingly, sae wantonly
An sae dauntingly gaed he
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallows tree
