Paroles de Adoon Winding Nith

Adoon winding Nith I did wander To mark the sweet flooers as they spring Adoon winding Nith I did wander Of Phillis to muse and to sing Awa wi your belles and your beauties They never wi her can compare Whaever has met wi my Phillis Has met wi the Queen o the Fair The daisy amused my fond fancy So artless, so simple, so wild Thou emblem said I o my Phillis For she is simplicity's child Oh the rose bud's the blush o my charmer Her sweet balmy lip when tis pressed How fair and how pure is the lily But fairer and purer her breast Yon knot of gay flooers in the arbour They none wi my Phillis can vie Her breath is the breath o the woodbine Its dew drop o diamond her eye Her voice is the song o the morning That wakes through the green spreading grove When Phebus peeps over the mountains On music and pleesure and love Oh but beauty how frail and how fleeting The bloom o a fine summer's day While worth in the mind o my Phillis Will flourish withoot a decay
