Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;
Ae fareweel, and then, for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.

Had we never lov'd sae kindly,
Had we never lov'd sae blindly,
Never met-or never parted,
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae fareweel, and then , forever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee

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 forever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;
Ae fareweel, and alas forever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears, I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.
Who can say that Fortune grieves him,
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me, nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me;
Dark despair around benights me.

I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy,
Naething could resist my Nancy;
But to see her is tae love her;
Love but her, and love forever.
Had we never lov'd sae kindly,
Had we never lov'd sae blindly,
Never met—or never parted—
We would ne'er been broken-hearted.

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, forever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears   I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee!

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;
Ae farewell and alas forever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears, I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.
Who can say that Fortune grieves him,
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me, nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me;
Dark despair around benights me.

I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy,
Nnothing could resist my Nancy;
But to see her was to love her;
Love but her, and love forever.
Had we never lov'd so kindly,
Had we never lov'd so blindly,
Never met—or never parted—
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.

Fare thee well, thou first and fairest!
Fare thee welll, thou best and dearest!
Thine be ilka joy and treasure,
Peace. enjoyment, love, and pleasure!
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;
Ae farewell, alas, forever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears, I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee!
