O, my luve's like a red, red rose,That's newly sprung in June.O, my luve's like the melodie,That's sweetly play'd in tune.As fair art thou, my bonie 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!O I will luve thee still, my Dear,While the sands o' life shall run.And fare thee weel, my only Luve,And fare thee weel a while!And I will come again, my Luve,Tho' it were ten thousand mile!
