The Music Of Scotland



    My Love Is Like A Red, Red Rose

    Oh, my love is like a red, red rose
    That's newly sprung in June
    Oh, my love is like a 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 all the seas gang dry.
    Till all the seas gang dry, my dear,
    Till all the seas gang dry
    And I will love thee still, my dear,
    Till all the seas gang dry.

    'Til all the seas gang dry my, my dear
    And the rocks melt with the sun
    And I will love thee still, my dear
    While the sands of life shall run
    But faretheewell, my only love
    Oh, faretheewell a while
    And I will come again, my love
    Tho' 't were ten thousand mile
    Tho' 't were ten thousand mile, my love
    Tho' 't were ten thousand mile
    And I will come again, my love
    Tho' 't were ten thousand mile.
