Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She has the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground whereon she stands

I go to the Clyde and mourn and weep
For satisfied I n'er can be
I write her a letter, just a few short lines
And suffer death a thousand times

I love my love and well she knows
I love the ground where on she goes
I know the day it soon will come
When she and I will be as one

Black is the colour of my true love's hair
Her lips are like a rose so fair
She has the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
I love the ground where on she stands
