Burns Robert - No Churchman Am I слова песни




No Churchman am I (Robert Burns) INo Churchman am I for to rail and to write,No Statesman nor Soldier to plot or to fight,No sly Man of business contriving a snare,For a big-belly`d bottle`s the whole of my care. II The Peer I don`t envy, I give him his bow; I scorn not the Peasant, tho` ever so low; But a club of good fellows, like those that are here, And a bottle like this, are my glory and care. III Here passes the Squire on his brother-his horse; There Centum per Centum, the Cit with his purse; But see you the Crown how it waves in the air, There a big-belly`d bottle still eases my care. IVThe wife of my bosom, alas! she did die;For sweet consolation to church I did fly;I found that old Solomon proved it fair,That a big-belly`d bottle`s a cure for all care. VI once was persuaded a venture to make;A letter inform`d me that all was to wreck;But the pursy old landlord just waddl`d up stairsWith a glorious bottle that ended my cares. VILife`s cares they are comforts, a maxim laid downBy the Bard, what d`ye call him, that wore the black gown;And faith I agree with the old prig to a hair;For a big-belly`d bottle`s a heaven o care. A Stanza added in a Masonic Lodge:Then fill up a bumper and make it o`erflow,And honours masonic prepare for to throw;May every true brother of th` compass and squareHave a big belly`d bottle when harassd with care.In III, the crown refers to a tavern sign in Mauchline, sporting the mottoof Sir J Whiteford`s arms, "D`en Haut".In VI, opening quote from Young`s Night Thoughts.Tune: Prepare, my dear brethern, to the tavern let`s fly (27)filename[ BIGBOTLEARB===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY===
