Will they aw return oor Heilan' men? Second sichted Sandy looked fu' wae An' mithers grat when they march'd away Chorus Oh! whaw is foremos o' aw, o' aw Oh whaw is foremost o' aw, o' aw Bonnie Charlie the King o' us aw, hurrah! Wi' his hundred pipers an' aw, an ' aw His bonnet and feathers he's waving high His prancing steed maist seems to fly The nor' win' plays wi' his curly hair While the pipers play wi'an unco flare Chorus The Esk was swollen sae red an' sae deep But shooder to shooder the brave lads keep Twa thousand swam owre to fell English groond An' danced themselves dry to the pibroch's soond Dumfoun'er'd the English saw, they saw Dumfoun'er'd they heard the blaw, the blaw Dumfoun'er'd they aw ran awaw, awaw Frae the hundred pipers an' aw, an ' aw Chorus |
