Additional quotes by Robert Burns

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

Drumossie moor — Drumossie day — A waefu' day it was to me! For there I lost my father dear, My father dear, and brethren three.

My love is like the red red rose
That's newly sprung in June
O my love's like the melody
That's newly played in tune
