Overheard an English history buff mentioning how "thou" used tae be the singular "you," while "you" was the plural, & that it was funny we had adopted "you" to address both 1 person or many people... Found myself thinking, you might... Here in Glasgow, at least, we still have the plural & singular options used prevalently. We still use "you" for the singular, but also have the option of pluralising it to "youse" 😉

No Ma King
Albert Kirk Jr

No ma King;
No yours tae;
Say it awfy quate but
On Coronation Day;

Sic a thocht is scunnersome;
Sic a thocht is vile;
Think anither thocht like thon,
Ye'll spend the nicht in jile;

Cannae hae the common fowk
Thinkin that they'r free;
Cannae hae the monarchy
Unner scrutiny;

Hail the King insteid, ya cur!
Hail the Windsors tae!
Say it like they'll crack yer skull
On Coronation Day.

My Scots Language bookshop website is working

chrisgilmour.co.uk/shop/

I don't actually sell anything, its just links to Amazon, Waterstones or Abebooks, but the interface is sortable and you can filter by things like regional dialect or category.

But as I've been moaning about recently, this offering is better than the support for Scots language on Amazon and Waterstones, they don't know what they're selling, but I do.

Frustrated that Amazon and Waterstones don't deal with Scots language books in a favourable manner, I have assembled my own pseudo bookshop website.

Clicking on the book images takes you to Amazon via affiliate links, and also there are other links to either Waterstones, Abebooks or the publishers own website.

Gin ye ain't got the do re mi, fowks,
You ain't got the do re mi,
Why, ye better gang back tae bonnie ,
Tourhill, New Ferm, Onthank, Shortlees;
Fair auld London's a gairden o Eden,
A paradise tae bide in or see,
But trew me, ma chiel
Ye'll no forder sae weel
Gin ye ain't got the do re mi.
