**Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;**


_Ae fareweel, and then forever!_


**_Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee, _**


Warring sighs 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:


But to see her, was 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 ilka joy and treasure,


Peace, Enjoyment, Love and Pleasure!




Ae fond kiss, and then we sever!


Ae fareweel, Alas, for ever!


Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee,


Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee.
