English poem
Chloris.
by Robert Burns
Tune - "Caledonian Hunt's Delight." I. Why, why tell thy lover, Bliss he never must enjoy: Why, why undeceive him, And give all his hopes the lie? II. O why, while fancy raptured, slumbers, Chloris, Chloris all the theme, Why, why wouldst thou, cruel, Wake thy lover from his dream?
