Текст песни Janice Leask of Lerwick/Why Should I?/Jock Hosie's Fancy (Malinky) с переводом

Why should I, a brisk young lassie

Be forced tae wed a feckless auld man?

Hoastin' an' hirplin' a lamiter body

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han

Kirk or mercat aye he follas me

Gapin', glowerin' 'til I fain ban

Then at oor ingle-neuk ilka day haverin'

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han

Why should I, a brisk young lassie

Be forced tae wed a feckless auld man?

Hoastin' an' hirplin' a lamiter body

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han

A' ma freens are like tae deave me

But hoose an' hame an' siller an' land

Deil tak' the siller an' land a' thegither

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han

Why should I, a brisk young lassie

Be forced tae wed a feckless auld man?

Hoastin' an' hirplin' a lamiter body

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han

My ain Jo is young and bonnie

And though he’s poor, he’s aye kind tae me

I’ll hae nae man but ma ain dearest Johnnie

And ne’er the auld man although I should dee

Why should I, a brisk young lassie

Be forced tae wed a feckless auld man?

Hoastin' an' hirplin' a lamiter body

I’ll dee far raither than gie him ma han
