- Ae fond kiss and then we sever!
Ae farewell and then for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
Warring cries and groans I'll wage thee. - Who shall say that fortune grieves him,
While the star of hope she leaves him ?
Me, nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me,
Dark despair around benights me.
- I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy:
Naething could resist my Nancy!
Just to see her is to love her,
Love but her, and love for ever.
- Had we never lov'd sae kindly,
Had we never lov'd sae blindly,
Never met- or never parted,
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.
- Fare thee weel, thou first and fairest!
Fare thee weel, thou best and dearest!
Thine be e'er more joy and treasure,
Peace, contentment, love and pleasure.
- Ae fond kiss and then we sever!
Ae farewell and then for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
Warring cries and groans I'll wage thee.
