And an HBT Burns night  poem from Ivor:

 

O my love is like a brown, brown vest

 

O my love is like a brown, brown vest

            That’s worn on road or hill;

O my love is like a pint o’ ale:

            Room temperature, not chill.

            As brown art thou, my semmit dear,

                        Sae deep in mud am I,

            And I will trot wi’ thee, my dear,

                        Till Hunter’s Bog gangs dry.

 

Till Hunter’s Bog gangs dry, my dear,

            And oor vests melt wi’ the sun,

O, I will love thee still, my dear,

            While brown-vested Trotters run.

            And drink wi’ me, my only love,

                        And drink wi’ me a while.

            And I will trot wi’ thee, my love,

                        Tho’ it were a Meadows Mile.

 

(Tho’ it were a Meadows Mile, my love,

            Tho’ it were a Meadows Mile.

Or I could dae a Campbell run

            And gang ten thousand mile.)
