Fire In The Glen |
The old days have gone that had use for a man |
Who supported his lairdship, protecting his land |
Who in times of unrest, he would have dies for his lord |
Now the soldiers of England have taken his broad sword |
And there’s fire in the glen, fire in the glen |
But no fire in the eyes of our Highland men |
And the laird has a smile for the makers of graves |
For the builders of empires and the keepers of slaves |
For he kept his great home losing nothing but pride |
Though his kinsmen lay huddled along the shoreside |
And there’s fire in the glen… |
So beware of their banners and the general’s lies |
There’s no glory for the poor man, no glittering prize |
For we gave all we had, now our homes they fall down |
And I cry out «Republic"and allegiance to no crown |
And there’s fire in the glen… |
The old days have gone that had use for a man |
Who supported his lairdship, protecting his land |
Who in times of unrest, he would have dies for his lord |
Now the soldiers of England have taken his broad sword |
And there’s fire in the glen, fire in the glen |
But no fire in the eyes of our Highland men |
And there’s fire in the glen, fire in the glen |
But no fire in the eyes of our Highland men |
