John Mcdermott The Flowers of the Forest lyrics

I've seen the smiling
Of fortune beguiling,
I felt all its favors,
And found its decay;
Sweet was its blessing,
Kind its caressing,
But now 'tis fled
'tis fled far away.

I've seen the forest
Adorned the foremost,
Wi' flowers o' the fairest
Most pleasant and gay,
Sae bonnie was their blooming,
Their scent the air perfuming,
But now they are withered and a' wede away.

I've seen the morning,
With gold hills adorning,
The dread tempests storming,
Before parting day,
I've seen Tweed's silver streams,
Glitt'ring in the sunny beams,
Grow drumlie and dark,
As they roll'd on their way;

O fickle fortune!
Why this cruel sportin?
Oh! Why thus perplex
Us poor sons of a day?
Thy frown cannot fear me,
Thy smile cannot cheer me,
Since the flowers o' the forest
Are a' wede away.
