Ye Pow'rswhamak mankind your care,And dish them out their bill o' fare,Auld Scotland wants naeskinking wareThat jaups in luggies;But, if ye wish her gratefu' prayer,Gie her a haggis! Translation Fair is your honest happy faceGreat chieftain of the pudding raceAbove them all you take your placeStomach, tripe or gutsWell are you worthy of a graceAs long as my arm But take note of the strong haggis fed ScotThe trembling earth resounds his treadClasped in his large fist a bladeHe'll make it whistleAnd legs and arms and heads he will cut offLike the tops of thistles You powers who make mankind your careAnd dish them out their mealsOld Scotland wants no watery foodThat splashes in dishesBut if you wish her grateful prayerGive her a haggis!
