O Mallys Meek — текст песни (Burns Robert)

O, Mally`s Meek
(Robert Burns)
As I was walking up the street,
A barefit maid I chanc`d to meet;
But O, the road was very hard
For that fair maiden`s tender feet!
CHORUS
Mally`s meek, Mally`s sweet,
Mally`s modest and discreet,
Mally`s rare, Mally`s fair
Mally`s ev`ry way complete.
It were mair meet, that those fine feet
Were weel laced up in silken shoon!
An `twere more fit that she should sit
Within yon chariot gilt aboon!
Her yellow hair, beyond compare,
Comes tumbling down her swan-like neck,
And her twa eyes, like stars in skies,
Would keep a sinking ship frae wreck!
tune: O Mally`s meek, Mally`s sweet (226)
