The Winsome Wee Thing.

By Robert Burns

I. She is a winsome wee thing, She is a handsome wee thing, She is a bonnie wee thing, This sweet wee wife o' mine. II. I never saw a fairer, I never lo'ed a dearer; And niest my heart I'll wear her, For fear my jewel tine. III. She is a winsome wee thing, She is a handsome wee thing, She is a bonnie wee thing, This sweet wee wife o' mine. IV. The warld's wrack we share o't, The warstle and the care o't; Wi' her I'll blythely bear it, And think my lot divine.
