​Scots Wha Hae

English (Scots)
​
Scots Wha Hae
Scots, wha hae wi Wallace bled,
Scots, wham Bruce has aften led,
Welcome tae yer gory bed,
Or tae victorie.
 
Now's the day, an now's the hour:
See the front o battle lour,
See approach proud Edward's power –
Chains and Slaverie.
 
Wha will be a traitor knave?
Wha will fill a coward's grave?
Wha sae base as be a slave?
Let him turn an flee.
 
Wha, for Scotland's king and law,
Freedom's sword will strongly draw,
Freeman stand, or Freeman fa,
Let him on wi me.
 
By Oppression's woes and pains,
By your sons in servile chains!
We will drain our dearest veins,
But they shall be free.
 
Lay the proud usurpers low,
Tyrants fall in every foe,
Liberty's in every blow! –
Let us do or dee.

​​Scots Who Have

​English Translation
​
Scots who have with Wallace bled
Scots whom Bruce has often led
Welcome to your gory bed
Or to victory!
 
Now's the day, and now's the hour
See the front of battle glower
See approach proud Edward's power
Chains and slavery!
 
Who will be a traitor knave?
Who can fill a coward's grave?
Who's so base to be a slave?
Let him turn, and flee!
 
Who for Scotland's King and Law
Freedom's sword will strongly draw
Freeman stand, or freeman fall
Let him follow me!
 
By Oppression's woes and pains
By your sons in servile chains
We will drain our dearest veins
But they shall be free!
 
Lay the proud usurpers low
Tyrants fall in every foe
Liberty's in every blow
Let us do or die!
