Flowers of Scotland

Im Sonnenschein wirken die Blumen am Verkaufsstand in der Princess Street nochmal so leuchtend. Im Hintergrund sorgt die Strassenreinigung unauffällig für ein sauberes Edinburgh und die Rückseite der Häuser an der Royal Mile lassen die ersten Hochhäuser Europas erkennen. Dort wohnten arm und reich zusammen, bis die, die es sich leisten konnten in die New Town auswichen.

The Flower of Scotland

O Flower of Scotland
When will we see
Your like again,
That fought and died for
Your wee bit Hill and Glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent him homeward
Tae think again.

The Hills are bare now
And Autumn leaves lie thick and still
O'er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
That stood against him
Proud Edward's Army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again.

Those days are past now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's Army
And sent him homeward,
Tae think again.
