Stay, My Charmer, Can You Leave Me?
(Robert Burns)

Stay, my charmer, can you leave me ?
Cruel, cruel to deceive me!
Well you know how much you grieve me!
      Cruel charmer, can you go?
      Cruel charmer, can you go?

By my love so ill-requited,
By the faith you fondly plighted,
By the pangs of lovers slighted,
     Do not, do not leave me so!
     Do not, do not leave me so!

tune: An Gille dubh ciar dhubh (197)
