Poems by Robert Burns
Presented by the RBWF
Ay waukin O
SIMMER 's a pleasant time,
Flowers of every colour;
The water rins o’er the heugh,
And I long for my true lover!
Chorus
Ay waukin, Oh,
Waukin still and weary:
Sleep I can get nane,
For thinking on my Dearie.------
When I sleep I dream,
When I wauk I'm irie;
Sleep I can get nane,
For thinking on my Dearie.------
Ay waukin &c.
Lanely night comes on,
A' the lave are sleepin:
I think on my bonie lad,
And I bleer my een wi' greetin.------
Ay waukin &c.
