　　Poortith Cauld And Restless Love

　　Tune—“Cauld Kail in Aberdeen.”

　　O poortith cauld, and restless love,

　　Ye wrack my peace between ye;

　　Yet poortith a' I could forgive,

　　An 'twere na for my Jeanie.

　　Chorus—O why should Fate sic pleasure have,

　　Life's dearest bands untwining?

　　Or why sae sweet a flower as love

　　Depend on Fortune's shining?

　　The warld's wealth, when I think on,

　　It's pride and a' the lave o't;

　　O fie on silly coward man,

　　That he should be the slave o't!

　　O why, &c.

　　Her e'en, sae bonie blue, betray

　　How she repays my passion;

　　But prudence is her o'erword aye,

　　She talks o' rank and fashion.

　　O why, &c.

　　O wha can prudence think upon,

　　And sic a lassie by him?

　　O wha can prudence think upon,

　　And sae in love as I am?

　　O why, &c.

　　How blest the simple cotter's fate!

　　He woos his artless dearie;

　　The silly bogles, wealth and state,

　　Can never make him eerie,

　　O why, &c. Poems and Songs of Robert Burns
