For Gabriel Richardson

  

Burns Original

Standard English Translation

Here brewer Gabriel's fire's extinct,
And empty all his barrels:
He's blest - if as he brew'd, he drink -
In upright, virtuous morals.

Here brewer Gabriel's fire is extinct,
And empty all his barrels:
He is blessed - if as he brewed, he drink -
In upright, virtuous morals.
