about

Four tunes in one for this track also part of the Scots Wha Hae show that I run for a few years (since 2009) with the Great Highland Bagpipe and my Scottish traditional outfit.
The track has been named after the Saltire, the Scottish national flag with its St Andrew white cross.

lyrics

With the 4th tune (Scotland The Brave) - by Éric Dentinger :

Red are the ropes that tied us
Red like the blood they gave us
Blue is the flag in the sky
White cross
Past the time for slavery
Wallace died to be free
This is the time for liberty

If those times are surely over
In the deepest corries mist
It’s alive in our veins
White cross
Blue the flag behind us
White the cross leading us
Soon is the time we will be free
