lyrics

Poor Mother of us all

you have left an open grave for me

you don't know who you are

sorrow is a modern ecstasy


Scotland

We will fight and we will toil

though our tears now flood the soil

and we’ll drink to brighter days

through the blood and through the haze


oh give your sorrow words

for the grief that does not speak

whispers to the heart and bids it now to break


Scotland

Underneath the yoke

everyday another wound to bear

can you hear the cry?

that rises up to heaven and rends the air

can you hear our prayer?

Heaven rest you now

receive what cheer you may

for the night is long enough

that never finds the day


you comfort me in dreams

but when, at last, I wake

you’re nowhere to be seen

and it’s more than I can take


Scotland
