Adieu, Dundee
Aye wakin', O!
A wee bird cam' to our ha' door (Wae's me for Prince Charlie)
Ailie Bain o' the glen (Eilidh Bhan)
Balooloo, my lammie
Blythe, blythe and merry was she
By the stream so pure and clear (Song of the Isle of Saint Kilda)

Come, all ye jolly shepherds (When the kye come hame)
Cope sent a letter frae Dunbar (Johnnie Cope)
Cro-Challain would gie me (Colin's cattle)
Farewell to Lochaber (Lochaber no more)
Far over yon hills (Flora MacDonald's lament)
Flow gently, sweet Afton (Afton water)
Gin a body meet a body (Comin' thro' the rye)
Hame, hame, hame!
Heavy the beat of the weary waves (Old dirge from the Isle of Mull)
Hush-a-by, darling
Hush ye, my bairnie (Cagaran Gaolach)
I climb the mountains (Fhir a bhàta)
I left my darling lying here (A fairy lullaby)
I'm wearin' awa', Jean (The land o' the Leal)
I wish I were where Helen lies (Fair Helen of Kirkconnel)
John Anderson, my jo, John
Maxwellton braes are bonnie (Annie Laurie)
My brown-haired maiden (Mo nighean donnBhòidheach)

Nae mair we'll meet again
O'er Coolin's face the night is creeping (MacCrimmon's Lament)
Oh, Charlie is my darling
Oh Hearken, and I will tell you how (Scottish wedding)
Och, och, mar tha mi! (The Islay maiden)
Oh, love will venture in
Oh, mirk, mirk is the midnight hour (Lord Gregory)
Oh, where, tell me where (The blue bells of Scotland)
Oh, my love is like a red, red rose
Oh, why left I my hame?
Put off, and row wi' speed
Red, red, is the path to glory ('Stu mo rùn)
Sad am I, and sorrow-laden (Soiridh!)
See afar yon hill Ardmore (The praise of Islay)
Scots, wha ha'e wi' Wallace bled
Should auld acquaintance be forgot (Auld lang syne)
Since my loved one has gone (Mo nighean chruinndonn)
Smile na sae sweet, my bonnie babe (Fine flowers in the valley)
Sing the praises o' my dearie (The peerless maiden)
The Laird o' Cockpen
The Campbells are comin'
The de'il cam' fiddlin' thro' the toun (The de'il's awa' wi' the exciseman)
The news frae Moidart cam' yestreen (Wha'll be King but Charlie)
The winter it is past
There grows a bonnie briar-bush
Three score o' nobles rade up the King's ha' (Glenogie)
The moon had climbed the highest hill (Mary's dream)
Turn ye to me
Thy cheek is o' the rose's hue
Why weep ye by the tide, ladye? (Jock o' Hazeldean)

Whar' ha'e ye been a' the day (My boy Tammy)
What's this dull town to me? (Robin Adair)

Will ye gang to the Hielands, Leezie Lindsay?
With the Loorgeen o hee (Leis an Lurgainn)
Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon
Young Jamie lo'ed me weel (Auld Robin Gray)
