Subject: RE: Help: Scottish text to Silent Night
Ah've spelt this in sich a way as tae mak th' words soond as they wad bein' spake wi' a Dundee accent. O' eh (och aye). Ah've nae gang as far as tae point oot where tae rrrroll th' rr's 'n a' that tho.

Silent nicht, holy nicht A' is calm, a' is bricht, Roond yon vairgin, Mither an' child, Holy infant Sae tender an' mild. Sleep in Heavenly peace. Sleep in Heavenly peace.

Silent nicht, holy nicht Shappards quake at th' sicht. Glory streams frae heaven afar, Heav'nly hosts sang alleluia; Christ th' Seviur is born; Christ th' Seviur is born.

Silent nicht, holy nicht, Son o' God, love's pure lecht. Radiant beams frae Thy holy face, Wi' th' dawn o' redeemin' grace, Jesus, Laird, at Thy bairth, Jesus, Laird, at thy bairth.
