The Bonnie Wee Thing

Bonnie wee thing, cannie wee thing,

Lovely wee thing, wast thou mine,

I wad wear thee in my bosom,

Lest my jewel I should tine.

Wishfully I look and languish

In that bonnie face o' thine;

And my heart it stounds wi' anguish,

Lest my wee thing be na mine.

Wit, and grace, and love, and beauty,

In ae constellation shine;

To adore thee is my duty,

Goddess o' this sould of mine.

--_Robert Burns_
