Craigieburn Wood
By Robert Burns (17591796)S
And blithe awakes the morrow;
But a’ the pride o’ spring’s return
Can yield me nocht but sorrow.
I hear the wild birds singing;
But what a weary wight can please,
And care his bosom wringing?
Yet darena for your anger;
But secret love will break my heart
If I conceal it langer.
If thou shalt love anither,
When yon green leaves fade frae the tree,
Around my grave they ’ll wither.
