I-
-
O luve will venture inB
Where it daurna weel be seenC
O luve will venture inB
Where wisdom ance has beenB
But I will down yon river roveD
Among the wood sae greenC
And a' to pu' a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
II-
-
The primrose I will pu'F
The firstling o' the yearG
And I will pu' the pinkH
The emblem o' my dearG
For she's the pink o' womankindI
And blooms without a peerG
And a' to be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
III-
-
I'll pu' the budding roseA
When Phoebus peeps in viewJ
For it's like a baumy kissA
O' her sweet bonnie mou'E
The hyacinth's for constancyA
Wi' its unchanging blueJ
And a' to be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
IVJ
-
The lily it is pureK
And the lily it is fairL
And in her lovely bosomE
I'll place the lily thereL
The daisy's for simplicityA
And unaffected airL
And a' to be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
VA
-
The hawthorn I will pu'F
Wi' its locks o' siller grayE
Where like an aged manM
It stands at break of dayE
But the songster's nest within the bushN
I winna tak awayE
And a' to be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
VIJ
-
The woodbine I will pu'F
When the e'ening star is nearG
And the diamond drops o' dewJ
Shall be her e'en sae clearG
The violet's for modestyA
Which weel she fa's to wearL
And a' to be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
-
VIIJ
-
I'll tie the posie roundI
Wi' the silken band o' luveJ
And I'll place it in her breastI
And I'll swear by a' aboveJ
That to my latest draught of lifeJ
The band shall ne'er removeJ
And this will be a posieA
To my ain dear MayE
