Glendevon Castle by Jonn Bearcat-Redmond(MelodeonMan)

Thers a wee place in Perthshire, its nae far frae thi Forth
Glendevon Castles is its name ain its nae thit far north
It stauns oon a hull ,nae veri hi ais ye'll see
Bit a beautifil place ye hae evir clapped ain eee

Oh thi castle thi Castle in this a glorius glen
Its donor wis a Douglas a man amongst men
Be ye rich be ye pair or humble ye wull ken
Thirs room fer ye aw in thi glorius Glen

Ave bin doon tae edinbury,ain Glesca ais weel
Ain ave bin doon in england ait thi big birlin wheel
Bit gie mi thi land o'Red Douglas ain his men
Ain thi strength in ma legs fer a waulk up thi glen

Oh thi castle thi Castle in this a glorius glen
Its donor wis a Douglas a man amongst men
Be ye rich be ye pair or humble ye wull ken
Thirs room fer ye aw in thi glorius Glen

Whin ye gan up Glendevon which a hope ye intend
Hae a look ait thi church ais ye waulk rooned thi bend
Thin gaze yer een roond ye and see fer yersel
Thit that jaunt up Glendevon his paid ye richt weel

Oh thi castle thi castle in this a glorius glen
Its donor wis a Douglas a man amongst men
Be ye rich be ye pair or humble ye wull ken
Thirs room fer ye aw in thi glorius Glen

So whaur er ye mite be in yer journey throo life
Wi its ups ain its doons ain struggles ain strife
Jist stop fer yin minute ain yer thochts ye kin sen
Tae thit beautifil dae thit ye spent in thi glen

Oh thi castle thi castle in this a glorius glen
Its donor wis a Douglas a man amongst men
Be ye rich be ye pair or humble ye wull ken
thers room fer ye aw in thi glorious glen

Wow! That's really great!!! What a talent!!!
I wish I could write something like that, but I'd probably have difficulties with the dialect.
Have you written anything else? If yes you could please share them with us? I'm sure we'd all love that.
LOL
