Carolina Nairne, Lady Nairne (née Oliphant; 16 August 1766 – 26 October 1845), also known as Baroness Nairne,[1][2] was a Scottish songwriter. Many of her songs, such as, "Will ye no' come back again?", "Charlie is my Darling" , "The Rowan Tree" and "Wi' a Hundred Pipers" remain popular today, almost two hundred years after they were written. One of her songs, "Caller Herrin'", was sung at the 2021 commemoration of the 1881 Eyemouth disaster.[3] She usually set her words to traditional Scottish folk melodies, but sometimes contributed her own music.
