Simmer's A Pleasant Time.
By Robert Burns
Tune - "Ay waukin o'." I. Simmer's a pleasant time, Flow'rs of ev'ry colour; The water rins o'er the heugh, And I long for my true lover. Ay waukin O, Waukin still and wearie: Sleep I can get nane For thinking on my dearie. II. When I sleep I dream, When I wauk I'm eerie; Sleep I can get nane For thinking on my dearie. III. Lanely night comes on, A' the lave are sleeping; I think on my bonnie lad And I bleer my een with greetin'. Ay waukin O, Waukin still and wearie: Sleep I can get nane For thinking on my dearie.
