Address to the Haggis By Robert Burns (Translation into standard English) Fair is your honest happy face Great chieftain of the pudding race Above them all you take your place Stomach, tripe or guts Well are you worthy of a grace As long as my arm The groaning platter there you fill Your buttocks like a distant hill Your skewer would help to repair a mill In time of need While through your pores the juices emerge Like amber beads His knife having seen hard labour wipes And cuts you up with great skill Digging into your gushing insides bright Like any ditch And then oh what a glorious sight Warm steaming, rich Then spoon for spoon They stretch and strive Devil take the last man, on they drive Until all their well swollen bellies Are bent like drums Then, the old gent most likely to rift (burp) Be thanked, mumbles Is there that over his French Ragout Or olio that would sicken a pig Or fricassee would make her vomit With perfect disgust Looks down with a sneering scornful opinion On such a dinner Poor devil, see him over his trash As week as a withered rush (reed) His spindle-shank a good whiplash His clenched fist…the size of a nut. Through a bloody flood and battle field to dash Oh how unfit But take note of the strong haggis fed Scot The trembling earth resounds his tread Clasped in his large fist a blade He'll make it whistle And legs and arms and heads he will cut off Like the tops of thistles You powers who make mankind your care And dish them out their meals Old Scotland wants no watery food That splashes in dishes But if you wish her grateful prayer Give her a haggis! My friend My friend must be a Bird— Because it flies! Mortal, my friend must be, Because it dies! Barbs1 has it, like a Bee! Ah, curious friend! Thou puzzlest me! 我的朋友 我的朋友肯定是只鸟— 因为它飞翔! 我的朋友肯定是个人, 因它会死亡! 它有倒刺,象蜜蜂一样! 哦,古怪的朋友啊! 你使我迷茫! Is Heaven a Physician? Is Heaven a Physician? They say that He can heal But Medicine Posthumous Is unavailable Is Heaven an Exchequer1? They speak of what we owe But that negotiation I’m not a Party to 天堂是个医生吗? 天堂是个医生吗? 他们说他能治病; 但死后的医药 是没有效用的。 天堂是国库吗? 他们谈及我们欠的债; 可是那谈判 我没参加。
