Kissing ’s no Sin

Anonymous

SOME say that kissing ’s a sin;

But I think it ’s nane ava,

For kissing has wonn’d in this warld

Since ever that there was twa.

O, if it wasna lawfu’

Lawyers wadna allow it;

If it wasna holy,

Ministers wadna do it.

If it wasna modest,

Maidens wadna tak’ it;

If it wasna plenty,

Puir folk wadna get it.
