An' 'en an' nou
The time wis 'en
But whan wis 'at
Whan time wis 'en?
If 'en wis whan
An' time wis 'en
Than time is whan
As weel as 'en
Yit time is time
An' nae a pairt
We dinnae ken
Whan time daed stairt
Whit does nae spick
O' nou an' next
It seems oor time
Is some wey hexed
and then (translation)
and then and now
the time was then
but when was that
when time was then?
if then was when
and time was then
then time is when
as well as then
yet time is time
and not a part
and we don't know
when time did start
which doesn't speak
of now and next
it seems our time
is somewhat hexed
