GUEST,Steve K New songs for Scottish independence (39) RE: New songs for Scottish independence 03 Jul 14


Hi,
I have written a song for Independence but unfortunately I'm no singer.
If there is anyone who is a singer, or better still in a band, who would consider singing the song in public please contact me at sjkilgariff@yahoo.co.uk and I'll send you a home recording of the song to let you hear the melody. Thanks.

LYRICS:

Slanje vah Alapa (Slainte mhath Alba)   'Good Health Scotland'

Hark the day is now upon us
Every Scot must stand
History is being written
Freedom is at hand
Sound the pipes let's hear your drumming
Spread the news afar
This day has been a long time coming
Slanje vah Alapa (Slainte mhath Alba)

Look afresh at all our blessings
The bounty of our land
Who could ask for such provision
Riches in our hand
Let us stand with one endeavour
Our wounds are now but scars
So let all Scotland rise together
Sanje vah Alapa   (Slainte mhath Alba)

Do we sing a fearful chorus,
trembling voices sound
or do we stand with William Wallace
certain of our ground
Though subterfuge may come at length
from near or from afar
The common weal will be our strength
Slanje vah Alapa (Slainte mhath Alba)

When I look upon this nation
in my twilight years
My legacy is this foundation
We are pioneers
And justly so let us boast
of Scots and who we are
So join me now and drink a toast
Slanje vah Alapa    (Slainte mhath Alba)
So join me now and drink a toast
Slanje vah Alapa    (Slainte mhath Alba)
