Answer:

the song is written in old english but it sounds like an old love song. here is why:

<em>"Maxwellton braes are bonnie,</em>

<em>Where early fa's the dew,</em>

<em>And 'twas there that Annie Laurie</em>

<em>Gave me her promise true.</em>

<em>Gave me her promise true,</em>

<em>Which ne'er forgot will be,</em>

<em>And for bonnie Annie Laurie,</em>

<em>I lay me doon and dee."</em>

<u>this verse talks about a relationship.</u>

<em>"Her brow is like the snowdrift,</em>

<em>Her throat is like a swan,</em>

<em>Her face it is the fairest</em>

<em>That e'er the sun shone on.</em>

<em>That e'er the sun shone on,</em>

<em>And dark blue is her ee,</em>

<em>And for bonnie Annie Laurie</em>

<em>I lay me doon and dee."</em>

<u>the second verse is basically compliments to someone.</u>

<em />

<u>And</u><em> "And she's a' the world to me" </em><u><em>In new english is "and she's the world to me."</em></u>

But please do not come after me for a relationship because I am already engaged to my fiance and i would never leave her side.

"Annie Laurie" is an old Scottish song based on a poem said to have been written by William Douglas (1682?–1748) of Dumfriesshire, about his romance with Annie Laurie (1682–1764). The words were modified and the tune was added by Alicia Scott in 1834/5. The song is also known as "Maxwelton Braes".
