shall ever be my dearie!

lassie, say thou lo'es me;

or, if thou wilt na be my ain,

o say na thou'lt refuse me!

if it winna, canna be,

thou for thine may choose me,

let me, lassie, quickly die,

still trusting that thou lo'es me!

lassie, let me quickly die,

still trusting that thou lo'es me!
