'Ae Fond Kiss'

Hello Love,
Eeee, I've been right busy, got a new hairdo and exorcised the neighbours cat after it became possessed by Genghis Khan.
Wayne has been enjoying himself catching up on some classic films with Orson Wells. He wishes they'd had films when he were alive because in his words, he has 'always had a penchant for lesbians'....I think it were lesbians. Not a big fan myself, though I always cheered on Billy Jean King. Anyway here is 'Ae Fond Kiss' by Robbie Burns, funny looks like a woman. Isn't it shocking how people mess with their hormones these days!





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.
Who shall say that Fortune grieves him,
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me, nae cheerful 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 was to love her;
Love but her, and love for ever.
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.
Fare-thee-weel, though first and fairest!
Fare-thee-weel, though best and dearest!
Thine be ilka joy and treasure,
Peace, Enjoyment, Love and Pleasure!
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever!
Ae fareweel, alas, for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.
