An' then bi nooin it's shooan soa breet

Aw've sowt some shade to rest,

An' as aw've paddled hooam at neet,

Glorious it's sunk i'th west.

An' tho' a claad hangs ovver thee,

(An' trouble's hard to bide),

Have patience, lad, an' wait an' see

What's hid o'th' tother side.

If aw wor free to please mi mind,

Aw'st niver mak this stur;
