MINE AIN DEAR SOMEBODY.

When gloaming treads the heels of day,And birds sit couring on the spray,Alang the flowery hedge I strayTo meet mine ain dear somebody.
The scented brier, the fragrant bean.The clover bloom, the dewy green,A' charm me, as I love at e'en,To meet mino ain dear somebody.
Let warriors prize the hero's name,Let mad ambition tower for fame,I'm happier in my lowly hame,Obscurely blest with somebody
