Subject: Lyr Add: THE WALLACE
(Craig Herbertson)

1. Winter she
Mourns spring
In bridal wreath and veil
Autumn gold
Summer brings
Fortune he prevails
In love's embrace bright seasons court
As lives of men they change
To fade and fall as flowers fail
And Winter rule again

For our freedom
Lay the wild, wild flowers
Women weep in vain
Oh softly falls the gentle snow
Wallace he is slain

2. Winter she
Sews shrouds
O'er Falkirk's blooded plains
The masques of death
O'er all abound
To waste her own domain
What king or queen shall not defend
Braver hearts must claim
Or freedom fall as flowers fail
And Winter rule again
