II.

O let us not, like snarling tykes,

In wrangling be divided;

Till slap come in an unco loon

And wi’ a rung decide it.

Be Britain still to Britain true,

Amang oursels united;

For never but by British hands

Maun British wrangs be righted!

III.

The kettle o’ the kirk and state,

Perhaps a clout may fail in’t;

But deil a foreign tinkler loon

Shall ever ca’ a nail in’t.

Our fathers’ bluid the kettle bought,

And wha wad dare to spoil it;

By heaven! the sacrilegious dog

Shall fuel be to boil it.
