Can anyone who speak Scots translate this for me?


"If you take a stab with your mouse button on the link to the left of this, you can hear a recording of the Scots makar Robert Garioch reading Robert Fergusson's 'To the Tron-kirk Bell', provided that your computer and loud-speakers can cope with MP3 files: it might not be functioning well as yet if you're still dependent on a dial-up modem - give us some feedback on this point, and we'll maybe think about reducing the file size. "

I'm having a discussion on another forum about whether or not Scots is a language or an English dialect. I'll say later why I need this particular paragraph to be translated.
