Brief Introductory Music

I'm aye myndin' ma wee Laura an' oor trystin' in the hedder;
Yon wur guid times, I maun asseer ye.
We cavorted, an' we blethered like twa garrons faa're untethered,
A happier pair ye'd ne'er see.

Unforyetable bliss fan we stapp'd fur a kiss wi' oor herts dirdin' fair fit tae birst!
Sich like joys o' oor blythe-youtheid wur us lernin' thit wul daffin'
Wis a somethin' thit nae cheils shud miss.

Tee I'm myndin' bein sae doolsome fan ma Laura teuk a scunner
Tae oor daffin' an widnae tryst mair.
I wis flummoxed, an nae wonner fur nae ither kenned hid fun her
Sae be-in lane wis ull tae bear.

Unforyetable bliss fan we'd stapp'd fur a kiss wi' oor herts dirdin' syne fit tae birst!
Sich like joys o' oor blythe-youtheid hid been lernin' thit wul daffin'
Wis a somethin' thit nae cheils shud miss.

Losh I weel myn fan ma Laura cam a-caain' at oor bothy;
Sae appalin', she still leuk'd tae me.
She spak doucely an' I hearkened as she fuspered. "I'm doonhairted
At bein sich a fule leain' ye."

Unforyetable bliss fan we hugged an' we kissed wi' oor herts dirdin' bang-bang, bangbang!
Sich like joys o' oor wyse-youtheid hid been lernin' thit saaf daffin'
Wis the luvin' thit baith us hid missed.
