My Love Is Like A Red, Red Rose - Bill Douglas

Oh, my love’s like a red, red rose

That’s newly sprung in June

Oh, my love’s like a melody

That’s sweetly played in tune

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass

Sae deep in love am I

And I will love thee still, my dear

'Til a' the seas gang dry

'Til a' the seas gang dry, my dear

And the rocks melt wi' the sun

I will love the still, my dear

While the sands o' life shall run

And fare thee weel, my only love

And fare thee weel a while

And I will come again, my love

'Tho' 'twere ten thousand mile

And fare thee weel, my only love

And fare thee weel a while

And I will come again, my love

'Tho' 'twere ten thousand mile
