Rachel Sermanni - Ae Fond Kiss lyrics

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever; Ae fareweel, alas, for ever! Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee! Who shall 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 had ne'er been broken-hearted I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy; Naething could resist my Nancy; For to see her was to love her Love but her, and love for ever Fare thee weel, thou first and fairest! Fare thee weel, thou best and dearest! Thine be ilka joy and treasure Peace, enjoyment, love, and pleasure! Ae fond kiss, and then we sever! Ae fareweel, alas, for ever! Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee!
