Text: Robert Burns
Musik: trad., arr. Andy M. Stewart

O, my luve’s¹ 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 love am I,
And I will luve thee still my Dear
Till a’the seas gang² dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my Dear,
And the rocks melt wi’³ the sun.
O I will luve thee still, my Dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee weel⁴, my only Luve,
And fare thee weel a while,
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.





1) luve’s = love is
2) gang = go
3) wi’ = with
4) fare thee weel = fare the well
