| FANFARE |
| 'Flower of Scotland' |
| Oh,
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, to 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, to think
again. |
