Marion Angus - Mary's Song

I wad ha'e gi'en him my lips tae kiss, <br />Had I been his, had I been his; <br />Barley breid and elder wine, <br />Had I been his as he is mine. <br /> <br />The wanderin' bee it seeks the rose; <br />Tae the lochan's bosom the burnie goes; <br />The grey bird cries at evenin's fa', <br />'My luve, my fair one, come awa' .' <br /> <br />My beloved sall ha'e this he'rt tae break, <br />Reid, reid wine and the barley cake; <br />A he'rt tae break, an' a mou' tae kiss, <br />Tho' he be nae mine, as I am his.<br /><br />Marion Angus<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mary-s-song-4/
