Poems by famous Scottish
Poet Robert (Rabbie) Burns
Of a' the Airts by Robert Burns
Of a' the airts the wind can blaw I dearly like the west, For there the bonie lassie lives, The lassie I lo'e best. There wild woods grow and rivers row, And monie a hill between; But day and night my fancy's flight Is ever wi' my Jean. I see her in the dewy flowers; I see her sweet and fair: I hear her in the tunefu' birds; I hear her charm the air. There's not a bonie flower that springs By fountain, shaw, or green; There's not a bonie bird that sings, But minds me o' my Jean.
