¶Liedtext

The breath o’ spring is gratefu’, As mild it sweeps alang, Awaukening bud an’ blossom The broomy braes amang; And wafting notes o’ gladness Fra ilka bower and tree; Yet the bonnie Redesdale lassie Is sweeter still to me! How bright is summer’s beauty! When, smilin’ far an’ near, The wildest spots o’ nature Their gayest livery wear: An’ yellow-cups, an’ daisies Are spread on ilka lea; But the bonnie Redesdale lassie Mair charming is to me. O! sweet is mellow autumn! When, wide owre a’ the plain, Slow waves in rustlin’ motion The heavy-headed grain; Or in the sunshine glancin’, And rowin’ like the sea; Yet the bonnie Redesdale lassie Is dearer far to me! As heaven itsel’, her bosom Is free o’ fraud or guile; What hope o’ future pleasure Is centred in her smile! I wadna lose for kingdoms The love-glance o’ her e’e;— O! the bonnie Redesdale lassie Is life and a’ to me!
