SHILFA
by J K Annand

Click here to listen to this in Real Audio read by Caitlin Wallace, aged 8

Chiffie, chiffie, Shilfa,
Tell me what's wrang.
Hoo can sic a bonnie bird
Sing a sad sang?

The colours o the rainbow
And mair forbye are yours,
A coat as braw as Joseph's,
A gairden o flouers.

Whan ilka ane that sees ye
Stands to admire,
Hoo can ye be sad in
Sic a gay attire?
