Thread Name: Lyr Req: Braes of Mar
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Braes of Mar
I have this from the mighty Tannies, on their cd Cullen Bay. This is from memory, so forgive any lapses:

The standard on the braes o' mar is up and streamin' rarely// the gatherin pipe on lochnagar is soundin loud and sairly// the hielan' men, frae hill and glen//wi' belted plaids and glitterin blades//wi' bonnets blue, and hearts sae true// comin' late and early

Oor prince has made a noble vow, to free his country fairly// wha would be a traitor nu, to ane we loo sae dearly// we'll go, we'll go and meet the foe// by land or sea, wheree'er they be// and man tae man, and in the van// we'll win or die for Chairly

Then I think you just repeat the first verse. It's a real rouser. I can't listen to it while driving, cuz inevitable it makes me go faster than I should!

Hope this is what you were after.
