I Love My Love in Secret |
Robert Burns, 1789
My Sandy gied to me a ring Was a' beset wi' diamonds fine; But I gied him a far better thing, I gied my heart in pledge o' his ring. Chorus: My Sandy O, my Sandy O, My bonie, bonie Sandy O! Tho' tbe love that I owe to thee I dare na show, Yet I love my love in secret, my Sandy, O! |
My Sandy brak a piece o' gowd, While down his cheeks the saut tears row'd, He took a hauf, and gied it to me, And I'll keep it till the hour I die. Chorus: |
