Текст песни I Belong To Glasgow (Will Fyffe) с переводом

I’ve been wi' a couple o' cronies,

One or two pals o' my ain;

We went in a hotel, and we did very well,

And then we came out once again;

Then we went into anither,

And that is the reason I’m fu';

We had six deoch-an-doruses, then sang a chorus,

Just listen, I’ll sing it to you:

Chorus

I belong to Glasgow,

Dear old Glasgow town;

But what’s the matter wi' Glasgow,

For it’s goin' roun' and roun'!

I’m only a common old working chap,

As anyone here can see,

But when I get a couple o' drinks on a Saturday,

Glasgow belongs to me!

There’s nothing in keeping your money,

And saving a shilling or two;

If you’ve nothing to spend, then you’ve nothing to lend,

Why that’s all the better for you!

There no harm in taking a drappie,

It ends all your trouble and strife;

It gives ye the feeling that when you get home,

You don’t give a hang for the wife!

Chorus

Meaning of unusual words:

deoch-an-dorus=drink at the door, farewell drink

fu'=drunk
