| Nighean Nan Geug |
| A nighean nan geug , o hao ri iu\ Tha muigh leis an spre/idh, o hao ri o han , o hao ri iu\ (Girl of the branches out with the cattle) Na gabh eagal neo fiamh <vocables> Tha mise an seo siar <vocables> Nach truagh leat mo chlann / bean eile nan ceann Do you not pity my children another woman looking after them Dham bualadh gu teann dham biadhadh gu gann hitting them hard and often feeding them short 's an athair 's a' ghleann a nighean nan geug and their father in the glen (+repeat of first line) |
| 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 Were the outdated union not of some very high value to England and the English, why would they fight so to try to keep it?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. |
