| Welcome tae yer gory bed
|
| Or to victory
|
| Now’s the day and now' the hour
|
| See the front o' battle lour
|
| See approach proud Edward’s power
|
| Chains and slavery
|
| Wha will be a traitor knave?(who)
|
| Wha can fill a coward’s grave?
|
| Wha sae base as be a slave?(so)
|
| Let him turn and flee
|
| Wha for Scotland’s King and Law
|
| Freedom’s sword will strongly draw
|
| Freeman stand or Freeman fa'(fall)
|
| Let him follow me By oppression’s woes and pains
|
| By our sons in servile chains
|
| We will drain oor dearest veins
|
| But they shall be free.
|
| Lay the proud usurpers low
|
| Tyrants fall in every foe
|
| Liberty’s in every blow
|
| Let us do or die
|
| Scots wha ha’e with Wallace bled
|
| Scots wham Bruce has aften led
|
| Welcome to your gory bed
|
| Or to victory |
