"I Am Come Home"
Fort Ontario - 2009
Sae let us tune oor hamely lyre,
An' ance mair let it be
In praise o' ilka Scottish lass
That treads oor land sae free;
For what is life tae ony man-
E'en ane wha wealth amasses-
Unless he shares it wi' ane o'
Oor blythesome Scottish lasses?
I'm fain tae sing a canty sang,
In praise o' Scottish lasses,
For weel I ken in a' oor land
There's naething them surpasses.
They are the queens to cheer ye up
When ye are dour an' sad,
An' weel they ken hoo tae come roon'
Each blythesome Scottish lad.
The tune you hear is
