LAY THY LOOF IN MINE, LASS.
O lay thy loof in mine, lass,
In mine lass, in mine lass,
And swear on thy white hand, lass,
That thou wilt be mine ain.
A slave to Love's unbounded sway,
He aft has wrought me meikle wae,
But now he is my deadly fac,
Unless thou be mine ain.
O lay thy life, &c.
In mine lass, in mine lass,
And swear on thy white hand, lass,
That thou wilt be mine ain.
A slave to Love's unbounded sway,
He aft has wrought me meikle wae,
But now he is my deadly fac,
Unless thou be mine ain.
O lay thy life, &c.
There's monie a lass has broke my rest,
That for a blink I hae lo'ed best,
But thou art Queen within my breast,
For ever to remain.
O lay thy loof, &c.
That for a blink I hae lo'ed best,
But thou art Queen within my breast,
For ever to remain.
O lay thy loof, &c.
Dear lad, gin ye'll be leal and true,
There's nane I like sae weel as you,
For there's my loof I swear and vow,
For life to be your ain.
Now there's my loof in thine iad,
In thine lad, in thine lad,
In hopes you will prove kind, lad,
And tak me for your sin.
There's nane I like sae weel as you,
For there's my loof I swear and vow,
For life to be your ain.
Now there's my loof in thine iad,
In thine lad, in thine lad,
In hopes you will prove kind, lad,
And tak me for your sin.
FINIS.
