Come

oot aa the pattrens o the leidin yer mither tongue, that wull niver dee
gin you an yer like keep it in mait.
The fleer is yer ain. The wird is oors.
(Doric translation by Sheila Templeton)
Come
and dance with us again,
birl those sequences of language
in a tongue that cannot die
while such as you are feeding it.
The floor is yours. The word is ours.
