By a Loch She Stands
By a loch she stands in a hidden Highland Glen
Absorbing the view as she marvels at the Ben
This granite of old with many stories to tell
Of her Clansman's past in the place that they dwell
Mountain sides of scree with carpets of heather
Look good at all times no matter the weather
Proud Stags roam in royalty pose
Whilst Golden Eagles soar on breathless air flows
Waterfalls thunder as they crash to the rocks
Sheep roam the hillsides in grazing flocks
Trout break the surface of translucent waters so pure
Legend has said, that it can indeed cure
The colours of the sunsets leave you totally in awe
Even the sunrises make the bravest Clansmen thaw
Remarkable pastels of orange, reds and blues
Bring a tear and a smile, does this most beautiful hue
By a loch she stands in a hidden Highland Glen
In this most wonderful place, Scotland's her gem
