kärleken till haggis

På vår matkonferens i Skottland lyckades vår evigt välresearchade andreredaktör Niklas hitta en skotte som kunde recitera den skotske nationalpoeten Robert Burns* klassiska dikt Address To A Haggis. Lite svår att förstå, men med en engelsk översättning förstår man det genialiska med att åtta verser uttrycka sin kärlek till haggisen på.

Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face, Great chieftain o' the puddin-race! Aboon them a' ye tak your place, Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye wordy of a grace As lang's my arm.

ENGELSK BEARBETNING
Fair full your honest, jolly face,
Great chieftain of the sausage race!
Above them all you take your place,
Stomach, tripe, or intestines:
Well are you worthy of a grace
As long as my arm.

Resten av verserna kan ni läsa här.

*Och det var Burns som skrev Auld Lang Syne
