Jamie, Come Try Me

I Love My Love In Secret

     My Sandy gied to me a ring,
     Was a' beset wi' diamonds fine;
     But I gied him a far better thing,
     I gied my heart in pledge o' his ring.

     Chorus.—My Sandy O, my Sandy O,
     My bonie, bonie Sandy O;
     Tho' the love that I owe
     To thee I dare na show,
     Yet I love my love in secret, my Sandy O.

     My Sandy brak a piece o' gowd,
     While down his cheeks the saut tears row'd;
     He took a hauf, and gied it to me,
     And I'll keep it till the hour I die.
     My Sand O, &c.
