| Scots' Music |
| Lassie Lie Near Me |
| A simple brief thought on Scottish Independance. Were the outdated union not of some very high value to England and the English, why would they fight so to try to keep it? There are only so many slices to a pie, for one to have more, another must have less. Lastly - to those Scottish "Loyalists" - to whom are you loyal? Scots royalty died in the 1700's so it can be no Scots crown - And certainly not it appears to those who came before, that bled for Scotland and her freedom ! |
| In the words of Burns, as he wrote from the heart. Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled, Scots, wham Bruce has aften led, Welcome to your gory bed, Or to victorie. Now's the day, and now's the hour; See the front o' battle lour; See approach proud Edward's power, Chains and slaverie. Wha would be a traitor-knave? Wha can fill a coward's grave? Wha sae base as be a Slave? Let him turn and flie: Wha for Scotland's king and law, Freedom's sword will strongly draw, Free-man stand, or free-man fa', Let him follow me. By Oppression's woes and pains! By your Sons in servile chains! We will drain our 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!!! Choose your destiny. |
| Lang hae we parted been, lassie my dearie Noo we are met again lassie lie near me Near me, near me, lassie my dearie Lang hast thou lain thy lane - lassie lie near me Frae dread Culloden's field bloody and dreary Mourning my country's fate lanely and weary Weary, weary, lanely and weary Become a sad banished wight far frae my dearie Loud, loud the wind did roar, stormy and eerie Far frae my native shore dangers stood near me Near me, near me, dangers stood near me Noo I've escaped them a', lassie lie near me A' that I hae endured, lassie my dearie Here in thine arms is cured, lassie lie near me Near me, near me, lassie lie near me Lang hast thou lain thy lane, lassie lie near me |
