Somebody

B. Burrows

My heart is sair, I daurna tell,

My heart is sair for somebody,

I could wake a winter's night,

For the sake o' somebody,

Oh, hon! for somebody!

I could range the world around

For the sake o' somebody.

Ye powers that smile on virtuous love,

Oh! sweetly smile on somebody;

Frae ilka danger keep him free,

And send me safe my somebody.

Oh, hon! for somebody!

I wad dae what wad I no'?

For the sake o' somebody.
