Question: Will Scotland ever get independance!?
Re written with lines purposely left as is!.

Advance ye men of every Scottish Clan,
Raise high your shields and to a man
We’ll ner’e retreat till battle is won,
Though many will die ay father and son!.

Blow ye pipers blow the wail o’ hell,
let yon sound fill both vale and dell!.
drink yon green fields; soak up the red blood,
where cattle and sheep and homes once stood

Fell their ranks with clamour and dirk,
let the English taste yon Scotland’s dirt!.
And er'e yon night is ner’e sa near,
the day will be Scotland’s hay ner’e fear!.

Set ya tartans swayin’ to the lament o’ the pipes,
Angles this day will nay set foot on the heights
O’ Hart Fell or Loweth Hill, for the day will be ours,
ay victory will be the Scott’s afore the sun lowers!.

Bonny Charley will be crowned our rightful king,
Then all o’ Scotland will rejoice; ay and will sing!.
Ner'e again will the English set yon foreign feet,
on Hadrian’s Wall where the lowlands lands meet!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
