Poem A Day

45. My Girl she’s Airy: A Fragment

by Robert Burns

MY girl she’s airy, she’s buxom and gay;

Her breath is as sweet as the blossoms in May;

A touch of her lips it ravishes quite:

She’s always good natur’d, good humour’d, and free;

She dances, she glances, she smiles upon me;

I never am happy when out of her sight.
