Raging Fortune—Fragment Of Song

    raging fortune—fragment of song

    o raging fortune's withering blast

    has laid my leaf full low, o!

    o raging fortune's withering blast

    has laid my leaf full low, o!

    my stem was fair, my bud was green,

    my blossom sweet did blow, o!

    the dew fell fresh, the sun rose mild,

    and made my branches grow, o!

    but luckless fortune's northern storms

    laid a' my blossoms low, o!

    but luckless fortune's northern storms

    laid a' my blossoms low, o!
