The roses of prince charlie


Come now gather now, here where the flowers grow
White is the blossom as the snow on the ben
Hear now, freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow
Now by the roses o' Prince Charlie
(chorus)

Fight again at Bannockburn yer battleaxe tae wield
Fight wi yer grandsires on Florran's bloody field
Fight at Culloden, the Bonnie Prince tae shield
Fight by the roses o' Prince Charlie

(chorus)

Spirits o' the banished, in far an' distant lands
Carved out the new world wi' sweat, blood an' hand
Return now in glory an' on the silver sand
Fight by the roses o' Prince Charlie

(chorus)

Tak' yer strength fae the green fields that blanket peat and coal
Ships fae the Clyde have a nation in their hold
The water of life, some men need tae mak' them bold
Black gold and fishes fae the sea, man

(chorus x2)

Biografia

The Corries were a Scottish folk group that emerged from the Scottish folk revival of the early 1960s. Although the group was a trio in the early days, it is best known as the partnership of Roy Williamson and Ronnie Browne. Williamson, singer and guitarist, came from a musical family and had already experience in traditional Scottish singing before forming The Corries. Browne, a versatile musician, mainly played fiddle, mandolin and banjo. Their musical style was characterized by original arrangements of traditional Scottish songs, often with a modern touch. Among the most famous songs by The Corries are "Flower of Scotland", which became the unofficial national anthem of Scotland, and "The Laird o'Cockpen". The group enjoyed great success in the 1960s and 1970s, releasing numerous albums and performing at music festivals worldwide. Their music helped to spread Scottish culture and folk traditions internationally.
