Paroles de Ae Fond Kiss

Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
Ae farewell, and then forever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee

Who's say that Fortune grieves him
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me, no cheerful twinkle lights me
Dark despair around benights me

I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy
Nothing could resist my Nancy
But to see her was to love her
Love but her, and love forever

Had we never loved so kindly
Had we never loved so blindly
Never met - or never parted
We'd ne'er been so 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, forever
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee
