Och Aye Oh Yes

Farquhar, a posh name
That's what it sounds like to me
Lords and other Nobles
Would grace this family tree

You can't help saying it
With much pride and panache
It certainly bodes better
Than Brown or Smith or Nash

I could go on forever
Quoting superlatives galore
I first saw this impressive name
Over a Scotsman's shop door!
