I'd Pluck a Fair Rose

I'd pluck a fair rose for my love

I'd pluck a red rose blowing

Love's in my heart

A-trying so to prove

What your heart's knowing

I'd pluck a finger on a thorn

I'd pluck a finger bleeding

Red is my heart

Wounded and forlorn

And your heart needing

I'd hold a finger to my tongue

I'd hold a finger waiting

My heart is sore

Until it joins in song

Wi' your heart mating♡
