Song—Fragment—the Wren’s Nest

by Robert Burns, 1795

The robin to the Wren’s nest
Cam keekin’ in, cam keekin’ in;
O weel’s me on your auld pow,
Wad ye be in, wad ye be in?
Thou’s ne’er get leave to lie without,
And i within, and I within,
Sae lang’s I hae an auld clout
To rowe ye in, to rowe ye in.
