Flower Of Scotland Lyrics
[Verse 1]
O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
[Chorus]
And stood against him
Proud Edward’s army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again
[Verse 2]
The hills are bare now
And autumn leaves lie thick and still
O’er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
[Chorus]
And stood against him
Proud Edward’s army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again
[Verse 3]
Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
[Chorus]
That stood against him
Proud Edward’s army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again
