Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
song.—o, were i on parnassus hill tune—“my love is lost to me.” o, were i on parnassus hill, or had o' helicon my fill, that i might catch poetic skill, to sing how dear i love thee! but nith maun be my muse's well, my muse maun be thy bonie sel', on corsincon i'll glowr and spell, and write how dear i love thee. then come, sweet muse, inspire my lay! for a' the lee-lang simmer's day i couldna sing, i couldna say, how much, how dear, i love thee, i see thee dancing o'er the green, thy waist sae jimp, thy limbs sae clean, thy tempting lips, thy roguish een— by heaven and earth i love thee! by night, by day, a-field, at hame, the thoughts o' thee my breast inflame: and aye i muse and sing thy name— i only live to love thee. tho' i were doom'd to wander on, beyond the sea, beyond the sun, till my last weary sand was run; till then—and then i love thee!M.HZGJjX.COm
