Fit will the future haud
For these twa serious lasses?
Will squeelday's freenship gaither
As time sae swiftly passes?

Fit fuspered blether crosses
Atween this newsin pair?
Dis either o them think aboot
The wider warld oot there?

They stitch an tuck sae bonnily,
Gweed een is fit ye need:
Their hauns like temple duncers
As they draa the rinnin threid.

Fit will the future haud,
As they shew ilk wi the ither?
Fit lucky lad will fin a wife?
Fit lucky bairn a mither?
