Tune of the Day: My Bonnie Lass Now Turn to Me
arranged for two flutes
This flute duet is taken from Blake's Young Flutist's Magazine, published in 1833. The origins of the melody are unclear, but it was published as a song in the late 1820s with lyrics by English musician Alexander Lee.
My bonnie lass now turn to me,
And give a smile to cheer me,
An honest heart I ll gie to thee,
For in truth I love thee dearly.
