O lay thy loof in mine lassB
In mine lass in mine lassB
And swear on thy white hand lassB
That thou wilt be my ainC
A slave to love's unbounded swayD
He aft has wrought me meikle waeD
But now he is my deadly fae-
Unless thou be my ainC

There's monie a lass has broke my restE
That for a blink I hae lo'ed bestE
But thou art queen within my breastE
For ever to remainC
O lay thy loof in mine lassB
In mine lass in mine lassB
And swear on thy white hand lassB
That thou wilt be my ainC
