Thanks Tuirc...
Quine = Lassie (or girl). It is a Doric word as opposed to generic Scots, where doric is the dialect of the scots language spoken in the Buchan area (North East). It is a wee bit different from the rest of the Scots language in a few areas.
The verse is a part of a folk song called "Lintin Lowrin" or "the Barnyards of Delgaty" depending on who you talk too.
