  Song, Composed In Spring

  Tune—“Jockey's Grey Breeks.”

  Again rejoicing Nature sees

  Her robe assume its vernal hues:

  Her leafy locks wave in the breeze,

  All freshly steep'd in morning dews.

  Chorus.—And maun I still on Menie doat,

  And bear the scorn that's in her e'e?

  For it's jet, jet black, an' it's like a hawk,

  An' it winna let a body be.

  In vain to me the cowslips blaw,

  In vain to me the vi'lets spring;

  In vain to me in glen or shaw,

  The mavis and the lintwhite sing.

  And maun I still, &c.

  The merry ploughboy cheers his team,

  Wi' joy the tentie seedsman stalks;

  But life to me's a weary dream,

  A dream of ane that never wauks.

  And maun I still, &c.

  The wanton coot the water skims,

  Amang the reeds the ducklings cry,

  The stately swan majestic swims,

  And ev'ry thing is blest but I.

  And maun I still, &c.

  The sheep-herd steeks his faulding slap,

  And o'er the moorlands whistles shill:

  Wi' wild, unequal, wand'ring step,

  I meet him on the dewy hill.

  And maun I still, &c.

  And when the lark, 'tween light and dark,

  Blythe waukens by the daisy's side,

  And mounts and sings on flittering wings,

  A woe-worn ghaist I hameward glide.

  And maun I still, &c.

  Come winter, with thine angry howl,

  And raging, bend the naked tree;

  Thy gloom will soothe my cheerless soul,

  When nature all is sad like me!

  And maun I still, &c. Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
