Ben J W Anthony - Ae Fond Kiss

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae farewell, alas, for ever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Waring sighs and groans I'll wage thee
Who shall say that fortune grieves him
While the star of hope she leaves him
Me, no cheerful twinkle lights me
Dark despair around be-nights me
I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy
Nothing could resist my Nancy
For to see her was to love her
Love but her, and love for ever
Had we never loved so kindly
Had we never loved so blindly
Never met or never parted
We had ne'er been broken-hearted
Fare thee well, thou first and fairest
Fare thee well, thou best and dearest
Thine be ilka joy and treasure
Peace, enjoyment, love, and pleasure
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae farewell, alas, for ever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee
