‘My braw little cock, sits on the house tap,

Ye’ll craw not till it be day,

And your kame shall be o the gude red gowd,

And your wings o the siller grey.’

The cock being fause untrue he was,

And he crew an hour ower seen;

They thought it was the gude day-light,

But it was but the light o the meen.
