~ My Love Is Like A Red Red Rose (poem) ~

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 fare thee well, my only love Oh, fare thee well 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. Robert Burns (1759-1796)
