That's newly sprung in June
O my love's like the melody,
That's sweetly played in tune.
As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I
And I will love 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
And I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.
And fare-thee-well, my only love!
And fare-thee-well, a while!
And I will come again, my love,
Tho' 'twere ten thousand mile!
My love's like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June O my love's like the melody, That's sweetly played in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in love am I And I will love 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 And I will love thee still, my dear, While the sands o' life shall run. And fare-thee-well, my only love! And fare-thee-well, a while! And I will come again, my love, Tho' 'twere ten thousand mile! Explain Request ×
