A Red, Red Rose

I wrote, arranged and recorded this song quite a long time ago.
I was reading the beautiful poem written by Robert Burns "A Red, Red Rose" and I felt quite moved by the words. My guitar was with me and the melody came out of it just by itself - that is the magic of music.

Credits:
"A Red, Red Rose" is a 1794 song in Scots by Robert Burns based on traditional sources. The song is also referred to by the title "Oh, My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose", "My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose" or "Red, Red Rose"and is often published as a poem.

The Poem
A Red, Red Rose

O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve's like the melodie
That’s sweetly play'd in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I:
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry:

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee well, my only Luve
And fare thee well, a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.

The melody that I composed and the lyric adaptation I used for this song of mine are of no speculation but only a celebration to the wonderful poem written by Robert Burns - A Red, Red Rose.
