52. Bonie Doon

——R. Burns

Ye flowery banks o'bonie Doon,

How can ye blume sae fair?

How can ye chant, ye little birds,

And I sae fu' o' care?

Thou'll break my heart, thou bonie bird,

That sings upon the bough;

Thou minds me o' the happy days,

When my fause luve was true.

Thou'll break my heart, thou bonie bird,

That sings beside thy mate;

For sae I sat, and sae I sang,

And wist' na o' my fate.

Aft hae I roved by bonie Doon

To see the wood-bine twine,

And ilka' bird sang o' its luve,

And sae did I o' mine.

Wi' lightsome heart I pu'd a rose

Frae aff its thorny tree;

And my fause luver staw' my rose

But left the thorn wi' me.
