I Once Loved A Lass Lyrics

I once loved a lass, I loved her sae weel
That I hated all others that thought o' her ill
But noo she's rewarded me weel for my love
For she's gone tae be wed tae another

I saw my love intae the church go
Wi' bridegroom and bride's maidens, they made a fine show
And I followed on wi' my heart fu' o' woe
For she'd gone tae be wed tae another

I saw my love sit doon tae dine I sat doon beside her and poured oot the wine
I drank tae that lassie who should hae been mine
Even though she was wed tae another

Dig me my grave, and dig it sae deep
And cover me ower wi' flooers sae sweet
It's I'll lay me doon and I'll tak' a lang sleep
Aye and maybe in time I'll forget her
Aye and maybe in time I'll forget her
