Atween rin an mounth,
A daysett lik a pent-buist
Wadgit at deleirit wattir-bowes,
Gowks chiffer seignals
Peitchin ae bettir nor Morse,
Maws ruggin draigons o thairsells,
A clenkit boyart
Tethert an howdin griement
Ti a pactioun o waffs,
A foir-schortent tanker
A branderin o owerlops,
Hailie Inch lik a blak
Mobie Dick schorin
Ti rowe ower in its sleip
An droun aw mankeind,
Polaris ablo-sie boit
Myndin its ain fell beisines,
Luimin mirk an malagrugous
Lik a weird's day ein.
