O my Love is like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June;
O my Love is like the melody
That's sweetly played in tune.
So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I;
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Til all the seas gang dry.
Til all the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi' the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands of life shall run.
And fare thee well, my only love!
And fare thee well awhile!
And I will come again, my love
Though it were ten thousand mile.
Thank you for posting, it is always such a joy to read Burns especially today. From a a Scot currently residing in Portugal.
