The KIND LASSIE.

WHEN I gaed to the mill my lane,
for to grind my ma't,
The miller laddie kist me,
I thought it was nae fau't.
What though the laddie kist me,
when I was at the mill,
A kiss is but a touch,
and a touch can do na ill.

O I loe the miller-laddie,
and my laddie loes me,
He has sic a blyth look,
and a bonny blinking eye.
What though the laddie kist me,
when I was at the mill?
A kiss is but a touch,
and a touch can do no ill.
