FAREWELL my Betty, and farewell my Annie, And farewell my Ammie, and farewell my friends. &c. Farewell to these plains and to innocent freedom, Believe me, my heart was akin to these scenes; &c. In each cheerful moment I meant you a pleasure, And ne'er gave offence, but it gave me more pain. &c. Through the lang muir I'll think of my Willie, And through the lang muir I'll think o'him again. Through the lang muir I'll think o'my Willie, And through the lang muir I'll think o't again. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MARY DONNELLY by WILLIAM ALLINGHAM BISHOP BLOUGRAM'S APOLOGY by ROBERT BROWNING AELLA: THE MINSTREL'S SONG by THOMAS CHATTERTON MEZZO CAMMIN by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW TWILIGHT by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW PERFECT WOMAN by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH |
