O my Love is like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Love is like the melody
That’s sweetly played in tune.

So fair art thou, my Bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I;
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt ’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee week, my only love!
And fare thee week awhile!
And I will come again, my love,
Though it were ten thousand mile.
