aye. aye.- Ok here
´s the words, but I think you´ll be none the wiser !!First in Scots and then the english translation. Green grow the rashes O! Green grow the rashes O! The sweetest hour that e'er I spent Were spent among the lasses O! There's naught but care on ev'ry han', In ev'ry hour that passes, O! What sig
nifies the life o' man, An' 'twere na for the lasses O? Give me a cannie hour at e'en My arms about my dearie, O! An warldly cares and warldly men, May a' gae tápsalteerie, O! For you sae douce wha sneer at this, Ye're not but senseless asses, O! The wisest man the warld e'er saw, He dearly loved
the lasses, O! Auld nature swears the lovely dears, Her noblest word she classes; O! Her 'prentice han' she tried on man, An' then she made the lasses, O! Now in standard english: Green grow the rushes, O; Green grow the rushes, O; The sweetest hours that ever I spend, Are spent among the girls
, O. There is nothing but care on every hand, In every hour that passes, O: What signifies the life of man, And it were not for the girls, O. The worldly race may riches chase, And riches still may fly them, O; And though at last they catch them fast, Their hearts can never enjoy them, O. But giv
e me a quiet hour at evening, My arms about my dearie, O, And worldly cares and worldly men May all go topsy-turvy, O! For you so grave, you sneer at this; You are nothing but senseless asses, O; The wisest man the world ever saw, He dearly loved the girls, O. Old Nature swears, the lovely dears H
er noblest work she classes, O: Her apprentice hand she tried on man, And then she made the girls, O. I hope that helps.
