To make it sound like a harp try some finger picking patterns

( ) you could eventually play the in between

Ca' the yowes to the knowes

Call them where the heather A#1grows

G#1Call them where the burnie rowes

My bonnie dearie

When I went down the water-side

To see the fishes sweetly A#1plaid

G#1Beneath the hazel spreading wide

And the moon that shines so clearly

 When I went down the water-side

 'Twas there I met my shepherd A#1lad

He G#1 row'd me sweetly in his plaid

 And called me, I his dearie

 If you'll but stand to what you've said

 I'll come with you, my bonnie A#1lad

And yG#1 ou may row me in your plaid

 And i will be your dearie

 You will get gowns and ribbons meet

 And leather shoes upon your A#1feet

And G#1 in my arms you'll lie and sleep

 My bonnie dearie

 As waters wimple to the sea

 While day breaks in the sky so A#1high

Till' G#1 clay-cold death shall blind my eye

I shall be thy dearie

Till' G#1 clay-cold death shall blind my eye

I shall be thy dearie
