Glasgow Lament

Jabberwocky

There’s naebdae noo comes up ma stair

There’s naebdae noo that loves me mair.

Them that wid ah hit the street

An’ whan they see me dinnae greet

 

(Literal translation

There’s no one  now comes up my stairs /visits with me in my home (in a tenement)

No one loves me any more

Those who would /used to all left

And when they see me they don’t say hello / weep )
