Scotland The Brave Lyrics in English
Scotland the Brave Lyrics:
Hark, when the night is falling
Hear, hear the pipes are calling
Loudly and proudly calling
Down through the glen
There, where the hills are sleeping
Now feel the blood a-leaping
High as the spirits of the old Highland men
Towering in gallant fame
Scotland, my mountain hame
High may your proud standards gloriously wave
Land of my high endeavor
Land of the shining river
Land of my heart forever
Scotland the brave
High in the misty Highlands
Out by the purple islands
Brave are the hearts that beat
Beneath Scottish skies
Wild are the winds to meet you
Staunch are the friends that greet you
Kind as the love that shines from fair maiden’s eyes
Towering in gallant fame
Scotland, my mountain hame
High may your proud standards gloriously wave
Land of my high endeavor
Land of the shining river
Land of my heart forever
Scotland the brave
Far off in sunlit places
Sad are the Scottish faces
Yearning to feel the kiss
Of sweet Scottish rain
Where tropic skies are beaming
Love sets the heart a-dreaming
Longing and dreaming for the homeland again
Towering in gallant fame
Scotland, my mountain hame
High may your proud standards gloriously wave
Land of my high endeavor
Land of the shining river
Land of my heart forever
Scotland the brave
