Wha Daur Meddle Wi' Me:Nemo Me Impune Lacessit

Breezy and gallus with nerves of steel
In him the team's heartbeat you could feel
He was the brains of that Celtic outfit
For that he deserves this little tribute
Exploiting an opening with defence splitting pass
Which allowed his teammates to step on the gas
Not being a man to turn the other cheek
Retribution he chose often to  wreak
A little man but  a giant  on the field of play
Bertie Auld's name on Celtic  fans' lips will always stay
Here was the Lion with the necessary bite
Always and ever ready, and  up for the fight
