Capernaum by Tannahill Weavers

If a' the blood shed at thy Tron
Edinbro', Edinbro'
If a' the blood shed at thy Tron
Were shed intae a river
'Twould ca' the mills of Bonnington
Edinbro', Edinbro'
'Twould ca' the mills of Bonnington
For ever and for ever

If a' the tears that thou hast grat
Edinbro', Edinbro'
If a' the tears that thou hast grat
Were shed intae the sea
Where would ye find an Ararat
Edinbro', Edinbro'
Where would ye find an Ararat
Frae that fell flood tae flee?

If all the psalms sung in thy kirks
Edinbro', Edinbro'
If all the psalms sung in thy kirks
Were gaithered in the wynd
'Twould shaw the tops o' Roslin's birks
Edinbro', Edinbro'
'Twould shaw the tops o' Roslin's birks
'Til time was oot o' mind

If a' the broken hearts o' thee
Edinbro', Edinbro'
If a' the broken hearts o' thee
Were heaped in a howe
There would be neither land nor sea
Edinbro', Edinbro'
There would be neither land nor sea
But yon rede brae and thou
