Caledonia

Caledonia her laund is oor laund, Caledonia her laund is ma laund A laund wherr ithers ur walcome, As we haud oot oor hand In friendship an tak ye aw in, As brithers fur aw that. Caledonia we hailse you foriver, Caledonia the braw kintre, Whaur fowk ur aye at hame, Wherr ithers feel richt at hame, Whaur affront is ne.er oor aim, An deceit fur laund wi lea alane. Caledonia yer nae wanes slave, Caledonia ne,er unner Sassenach fit, A laund fu o kemps aplenty, Free tae skail guid rid bluid, We urny hinder tae scowth-and -roth An will fecht tae uphaud oor richts. A kintre o men free wi lealtie tae, Auld alba caws tae us frae whiles bygane, Wi sangs an ports fae the pipes , Filling the hairt wi pride an courage, An we will fechttae protect oor ain, An free auld alba frae colonial pain.
