T'lad ewsta wrihte daft Lanky pawms
(Nobbut dogrul 'n' moast uv 'em bad),
Saw wen t'lad 'eard t'renewed int'rest
It did t'werld o' gud fer t'lad!

It mehde 'im feel proppa gradely
T' lurn that sum 'ad bin kept;
"Ba 'ecky," 'e thowt, "thass reet champyun",
'N' 'e wur tutched 'n' darn nearly wept.

In a mawmunt uv prihde (aw conceit, lihke!)
'E thowt "Ba gum, dosta knaw,
'Appun Ah shood tehke oop yon pen
'N' trieh 'n' mehke oop sum maw.

"Bu' reesun prevehled 'n' 'e reelized
T'lad's gerrin too owd fer this gehme.
T'muse seldum cums to 'im these dehs,
Saw 'appun 'e'll rest un 'is fehme

N' purris pen oop 'n' retire lihke,
'N' 'awp t'yunguns'll tehke oop t'chaw,
'Cos Lanky stoof's reet oeauta fashion
'N' t'demand it joos ain't theer naw maw. 

Bu' t'lad wansta thank them as remembud
