1320
Oh the year was 1320
In the Abbey o' Arbroath
When the sons of sovereign Scotland
First took their solemn oath.
For freedom we'll endeavour
For liberty we'll strive
And tae England, No Surrender
While one hundred true Scots survive.
On that glorious occasion
Was Scotland's future writ
Tae foreign domination
We never shall submit
Wi the words o promise spoken
Tae calm our bitter steel
While blades of grass lie broken
Beneath the Saxon heel
And should our chosen fail us
And kneel at London's door
Lest treason should assail us
We shall tak tae the steel once more
Oh the year was 1320
