A Mans A Man For All That — текст песни (Burns Robert)

A MAN`S A MAN FOR ALL THAT
or IS THERE FOR HONEST POVERTY
by Robert Burns
Is there for honest poverty
That hangs his head, an` a` that
The coward slave, we pass him by
We dare be poor for a` that
For a` that, an` a` that
The rank is but the guinea`s stamp
The man`s the gowd for a` that
What though on hamely fare we dine
Wear hoddin grey, an` a` that
Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine
A man`s a man, for a` that
For a` that, an` a` that
Their tinsel show an` a` that
The honest man, though e`er sae poor
Is king o` men for a` that
Ye see yon birkie ca`d a lord
Wha struts an` stares an` a` that
Tho` hundreds worship at his word
He`s but a coof for a` that
For a` that, an` a` that
The man o` independent mind
He looks an` laughs at a` that
A prince can mak` a belted knight
A marquise, duke, an` a` that
But an honest man`s aboon his might
Gude faith, he maunna fa` that
For a` that an` a` that
Their dignities an` a` that
The pith o` sense an` pride o` worth
Are higher rank that a` that
Then let us pray that come it may
(as come it will for a` that)
That Sense and Worth, o`er a` the earth
Shall bear the gree an` a` that
For a` that an` a` that
It`s coming yet for a` that
That man to man, the world o`er
Shall brithers be for a` that
