I would say that the theme of this song or poem is the
idea that love is what makes the world go 'round, as they say. The speaker is saying
that it is "the lasses" that make life happy.
In the poem,
the speaker says, for example, that the material things in life are no good when
compared the pleasures of being in love. He says that you can have all the riches you
want, but you will not really be content. By contrast, if you have a love, if you have
a woman to spend your time with, you will be a happy person.
