Song—Down the Burn, Davie love

by Robert Burns, 1793

As down the burn they took their way,
  And thro' the flowery dale;
His cheek to hers he aft did lay,
  And love was aye the tale:

With "Mary, when shall we return,
  Sic pleasure to renew?"
Quoth Mary—"Love, I like the burn,
  And aye shall follow you."
