I could never understand why the icon of the Scottish flag appears in black — so I decided to fix that injustice and added it to the cover.
Greetings to the proud people of Scotland.
[Intro] (Verse 1)
[male Scottish baritone with raw emotional tone]
Ye Jacobites by name, gie an ear, gie an ear,
Ye Jacobites by name, gie an ear.
Ye Jacobites by name,
Your fauts I will proclaim,
Your doctrines I maun blame, ye shall hear, ye shall hear.
(Verse 2)
What is right and what is wrang, by the law, by the law?
What is right and what is wrang, by the law?
What is right and what is wrang?
Is it sword that sings the sang,
Or the weak oppressed by thraw, that we draw?
(Verse 3)
What maks heroic strife, far and wide, far and wide?
What maks heroic strife far and wide?
Is it whettin’ assassin’s knife,
Or takin’ a parent’s life,
Wi’ bluid and endless strife, can ye bide?
(Verse 4)
Then let your schemes alone, in the state, in the state,
Then let your schemes alone, in the state.
Adore the risin’ sun,
Let the honest deed be done,
And leave the wrathfu’ run tae their fate, tae their fate.
