My lover’s faith to share,
An’ he has gi’en to me his heart,
An’ what can man do mair?
His mind and manners won my heart,
He gratefu’ took the gift,
An’ did I wish to seek it back
It wad be waur than theft.
The langest life can ne’er repay
The love he bears to me,
And ere I’m forced to break my faith,
