The Poetical Works of Robert Burns/Lines written on a Tumbler
LINES WRITTEN ON A TUMBLER.
You're welcome, Willie Stewart;You're welcome, Willie Stewart;There's ne'er a flower that blooms in May,That's half sae welcome's thou art.
Come, bumpers high, express your joy,The bowl we maun renew it;The tappit-hen, gae bring her ben,To welcome Willie Stewart.
May foes be strang, and friends be slack,Ilk action may he rue it;May woman on him turn her back,That wrangs thee, Willie Stewart!
