The main idea that is central to the meaning of The Twa Corbies is that life is precious. In the story, the ravens fight over food.
The central idea of the Scottish ballad "Twa Corbies" is the inevitability of death and the idea that in the end, all things return to the earth. The poem highlights the notion that no matter one's station in life, death is the great equalizer. It also touches upon themes of desolation and the cycle of life and death in nature.

"The Twa Corbies" is a ballad because it is a narrative folk song that tells a story, in this case, about two ravens discussing a deceased knight. Ballads typically have a simple and repetitive structure with strong storytelling elements, making them easy to remember and pass down orally through generations.
"Twa Corbies" technically means the two ravens. They are sitting watching a dead man laying on the ground, killed in battle. They debate about whether or not to eat the remains, except a hawk, hound, and lady (probably his wife) are "guarding" the body. Ultimatetly though, the reader sees they are very selfish and care very little about the man being dead and can move on quickly from the experience. The noble knight who dies in battle only gets recognized as food by the ravens. It contradicts the ballad "the three ravens," who honor the knight, and shows the selfishness of human beings.

Probably it relates to 'Sic transit gloria mundi' - (all the glories of the world are transient). Even the powerful and handsome knight dies and is reduced to being no more than a meal for the crows. He doesn't even get a decent burial. All is vanity in the long run even for the so called 'winners' in society.

It means very thin. Lowland Scots expression. It is a (usually derogatory) description of a skinny or thin person. It derives from reek - meaning smoke - and twa ply, or two ply, a description of very thin knitting wool. So a thin person is being likened to two ply smoke. Usage - "she's as skinny as twa ply reek!"
