Words by Robert Burns
O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve's
the melodie
That's sweetly play'd in
.
As fair art
, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I:
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang
:
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my
,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall
.
And
thee weel, my only Luve
And fare thee weel, a while!
And I will come again, my luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand
.
