Ae Fond Kiss

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

Wha should say that fortune grieves him
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me
Dark despair around benights me

Had we never loved sae kindly
Had we never loved sae blindly
Never met or never parted
We would ne'er be broken hearted

Fare-thee-weel thou first and fairest
Fare-thee-weel thou best and dearest
Thine be ilke joy and treasure
Peace enjoyment love and pleasure
