A Red, Red Rose

Red rose bud

Red roses

A Red, Red Rose
by Robert Burns

O my Luve’s like a red, red rose
  That’s newly sprung in June:
O my Luve’s like the melodie
  That’s sweetly play’d in tune!

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
  So deep in luve am I:
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
  Till a’ the seas gang dry:

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

And fare thee weel, my only Luve,
  And fare thee weel a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
  Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.
