No Cold Approach
TUNE: Ianthy the lovely

 

Burns Original

Standard English Translation


No cold approach, no alter'd mien,
Just what would make suspicion start,
No pause the dire extremes between,
He made me blest - and broke my heart.

 


No cold approach, no altered mien,
Just what would make suspicion start,
No pause the dire extremes between,
He made me blest - and broke my heart.
