 * A Red, Red Rose**

O My __Luve's like a red, red rose__, That's newly sprung in June; O My Luve's like the melodie That's sweetly played in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I; And I will luve thee still, my dear, Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear While the sands o' life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only luve, And fare thee weel, awhile! And I will come again, my luve Tho' it ware ten thousand mile! //Robert Burns //1759-1796////
