'o' bonny doon?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

(Other definitions for braes that I've seen before include "Sabre (anag) - Scottish banks" , "Hillsides in Scotland" , "Scottish hillsides, banks" , "Old song 'By yon bonny banks, and by yon bonny . . . . .'" .)
