Seven excellent new songs/Wilt thou be my dearie
Appearance
WILT THOU BE MY DEARIE.
Wilt thou be my dearie?
When sorrow wrings thy gentle heart,
O wilt thou let me cheer me;
By the treasure of my soul,
That's the love I bear thee!
I swear and vow, that only thou
Shall ever be my Dearie.
Only thou I swear and vow,
Shall ever be my dearie.
Lassie, say thou lo'es me;
Or if thou wilt na be my ain,
Say na thou'lt refuse me:
If it winna, canna be,
Thou for thine may chuse me,
Let me, Lassie, quickly die,
Trusting that thou lo'es me.
Lassie, let me quickly die,
Trusting that thou lo'es me.
