Is There For Honest Poverty by R. Burns (исполнитель: Old Blind Dogs)

Is There for Honest Poverty (For a’ That an’ a’ That)

Is there for honest poverty 
That hings his head, an’ a’ that? 
The coward slave, we pass him by – 
We dare be poor for a’ that! 
For a’ that, an’ a’ that, 
Our toils obscure, an’ a’ that, 
The rank is but the guinea’s stamp, 
The man’s the gowd for a’ that. 

What though on hamely fare we dine, 
Wear hoddin grey, an’ a’ that? 
Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine – 
man’s a man for a’ that. 
For a’ that, an’ a’ that, 
Their tinsel show, an’ a’ that, 
The honest man, tho’ e’er sae poor, 
Is king o’ men for a’ that. 

Ye see yon birkie ca’d ‘a lord’, 
Wha [bad word]  an’ stares, an’ a’ that? 
Tho’ hundreds worship at his word, 
He’s but a cuif for a’ that. 
For a’ that, an’ a’ that, 
His ribband, star, an’ a’ that, 
The man o’ independent mind, 
He looks an’ laughs at a’ that. 

prince can mak a belted knight, 
marquis, duke, an’ a’ that! 
But an honest man’s aboon his might – 
Guid faith, he mauna fa’ that! 
For a’ that, an’ a’ that, 
Their dignities, an’ a’ that, 
The pith o’ sense an’ pride o’ worth 
Are higher rank than a’ that. 

Then let us pray [bad word] it may  [bad word] it will for a’ that) 
That Sense and Worth o’er a’ the earth 
Shall bear the gree an’ a’ that! 
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,  [bad word] yet for a’ that, 
That man to man the world o’er 
Shall brithers be for a’ that.
