Yon Lassie Sweet

by Frank Maguire
(England)

Yon lassie sweet, yon lassie fair
Wae bonnie tresses in yer hair
Such beauty, sae beyond compare
Come bide wae me a while

Yon lassie sweet, maist everyday
A think aboot ye in some way
Deep in ma mind ye always stay
Come tell tae me yer tale

Yon lassie sweet, whaur ye may be
A hope ye sometimes think o me
Fir jist a while ur endlessly
Come rest wae me a say

Yon lassie sweet, a bid ye weel
At least ye ken noo, how a feel
Ma love fir ye a'll ne'r conceal
Come be ma lassie sweet
