Ae fond kiss, and then we sever

Comin thro’ the rye, poor body

Flow gently, sweet Afton! among thy green braes

Lassie wi’ the lint-white locks
M
My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here
N

O
O lassie, art thou sleeping yet
O luve will venture in
O my Luve ’s like a red, red rose
O saw ye my dearie, my Eppie Macnab?
O Thou Great Being! what Thou art
O Thou unknown, Almighty Cause
O Thou, who in the heavens does dwell
O wert thou in the cauld blast

On a bank of flowers, in a summer day

Wee, sleekit, cow’rin’, tim’rous beastie

When chill November’s surly blast
When lyart leaves bestrow the yird
When wild war’s deadly blast was blawn
Y
Ye gallants bright, I red ye right
