o wert thou the cauld bst

o wert thou the cauld bst,

on yonder lea, on yonder lea,

y pidie to the angry airt,

i&039;d shelter thee, i&039;d shelter thee;

or did isfortune&039;s bitter stors

around thee bw, around thee bw,

thy bield should be y bo,

to share it a&039;, to share it a&039;

or were i the wildest waste,

sae bck and bare, sae bck and bare,

the desert were a paradise,

if thou wert there, if thou wert there;

or were i onarch o&039; the globe,

wi&039; thee to reign, wi&039; thee to reign,

the brightest jewel y crown

wad be y een, wad be y een
