BackgroundTraditional Scottish folk song of unknown origin. Though mostly thought of as a love song, some speculate that it was originally about “Bonnie Prince Charlie” a.k.a. Charles Edward Stuart.
Personal NoteSinging this song always brings me back to the days when I was learning to play the piano. In my mind's eye I can still see the illustration on the songbook page for My Bonnie, see my mother's hand gently holding the book open and feel the hard bench under me as I played this charming little melody.
