Nae Day Sae Dark

This fantastic David Annand sculpture sits on Perth High Street. The poem, Nae Day Sae Dark by William Soutar, is inscribed on the inside of the circle.

Nae day sae dark; nae wüd sae bare;
Nae grund sae stour wi' stane;
But licht comes through; a sang is there;
A glint o' grass is green.Wha hasna thol'd his thorter'd hours
And kent, whan they were by,
The tenderness o' life that fleurs
Rock-fast in misery?
