One of Scotland's Unofficial National Anthems-Flower of Scotland

Performed here by the Corries and written by Roy Williamson of the Corries, circa 1965, about the victory of the Scots, led by Robert the Bruce, over England's Edward II at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.

O Flower of Scotland,

When will we see

Your like again

That fought and died for

Your wee bit Hill and Glen

And stood against him

Proud Edward's army

And sent him homeward

Tae think again

The Hills are bare now,

And Autumn leaves

lie thick and still,

O'er land that is lost now,

Which those so dearly held,

That stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again.

Those days are past now,

And in the past

they must remain,

But we can still rise now,

And be the nation again,

That stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again

Thanks to Stuart
