Summary
A waulking/clapping song by a young man who is wondering who will flirt with him. He meets a young girl one day when walking on the moors. She is picking flowers by the side of a pool. He went over to her and asked who she belonged to. She told him she was a Chisholm girl and he in turn told her that he was also a Chisholm. She said that she would have nothing to do with him; that a MacLean was her preference and a MacDonald is to meet her.
