O gin I Were a Baron's Heir played by kenny mitchell. O gin I Were a Baron's Heir In this Burns song the young man is admitting to his girl that he has nothing to offer her but his love, admitting that he has no riches or titles. We are led to expect that the girl will say she loves him, as he is expressing his feelings so beautifully. The melody is an old Scottish air. O gin I were a Baron's heir, And could I braid wi' gems your hair, And mak' ye braw as ye are fair, Lassie, wid ye lo'e me? And could I tak' ye tae the toun, And show ye braw sichts, mony a ane, And busk ye fine in silken goon, Lassie, wid ye lo'e me? Or should ye be content tae prove, In lowly life unfading love A heart that nocht on earth could move, Lassie wid ye lo'e me? And ere the laverock wing the sky, Say wad ye tae the forest hie, And work wi' me sae merrily, Lassie, wid ye lo'e me? An' when the braw moon glistens owre Oor wee bit bield an' heathery mair, Will ye no' greet that we're sae puir, Lassie, for I lo'e ye. For I hae nocht tae offer ye, Nae gowd frae mine, nae pearl frae sea, Nor am I come o' high degree, Lassie, but I lo'e ye. gin - if braw - bonnie lassie - girl lo'e - love toun - town busk - dress up goon - gown laverock - lark bield - shelter gowd - gold mair - moor
