Rabbi Burns: My Love Is like A Red Red Rose

Red Rose

O my Love’s like a red, red rose

That’s newly sprung in June;

 

O my Love’s like the melodie

that’s sweetly play’d in tune.

 

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,

So deep in luve am I:

And I will luve thee still, my dear,

Till a’ the seas gang dry:

 

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,

And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:

I will luve thee still, my dear,

While the sands o’ life shall run.

 

And fare thee well,my only Luve

And fare thee well,a while!

And I will come again, my Luve,

Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.

Robert Burns
