What would be the point of independence if we continue to allow the world to migrate to our sacred land? We have an Indian ruling Scotland that HATES the very sight of us!
My grandparents left Clydebank for New York in the 1920s due to extreme poverty while London, her so called 'government', ignored her. And when oil was discovered off her banks in the 1970s, I prayed Scotland would be the one to benefit. Instead London stole her birthright. Please, Scotland, vote for FREEDOM. SAOR ALBA!!
@ juliette and sean - Not only did Thatcher & her ilk steal our oil but they also stole the T.S.B. / Trustee Savings Bank which Scotland spent generations building up/ There are no limits these sassenach bar stewards won't sink - while all the time trying to put us down ! Alba Gu Brath !
In 2008, when Craig Ferguson (son of Glasgow) became a US citizen, he gave a speech at the Boston Independence Day Celebration quoting this passage from the Declaration of Albroth reminding us there would be no United States and the freedoms we have had it not been for the Scots. More than a third of the delegates that signed the Declaration of Independence were Scots. Most of the authors, including Thomas Jefferson were Scots. Thank you Scotland. (Thank you for Craig Ferguson as well.)
"For as long as one hundred of us shall remain alive, we shall never in any wise consent submit to the rule of the English, for it is not for glory we fight, nor riches, or for honour, but for freedom alone, which no good man loses but with his life." -Robert the Bruce
Robert the Bruce was the descendant of a Norman carpetbagger who, along with a few others, were invited into Scotland to subdue those Clans who maintained their independence vis a vis the Scottish Crown. Robert the Bruce and his pals weren't fighting for freedom for ordinary Scots, they were fighting for a country for themselves. As a result they introduce Norman Style feudalism to Scotland and we still suffer from that today. It was the descendants of same Aristocracy that signed the Declaration of Arbroath and who had declared they would never surrender to English rule, that first of all skipped off to be King of England and a hundred years later signed the Treaty of Union which effectively let England rule Scotland. A Parcel of Rogues and traitors to Scotland. Today we have another Parcel of Rogues who want independence from England only to surrender that independence to the EU. Scots need to waken up, they have a bad habit of allowing themselves to be led astray.
@@bigboaby555 - I know he was also the descendant of a Scot but on his father's side he was Norman and his mentality was Norman.. As for his actions once he became king? What history book do you read? Bruce, when he became King, established Norman style feudalism whereby Scots were reduced to serfdom, and it was a worse type of serfdom than in England. Previously the land had belonged to the Clan, now it became the property of the "Laird". In England, at the dissolution of the monasteries, the monastery lands were sold of to a wide variety of people. In Scotland John Knox wanted to rent out the Monastery lands and use the rents to educate the people, the aristocracy (the descendants of those who signed the Declaration of Arbroath) said NO and seized the lands for their own greedy selves. After the civil wars of the 17th Century and once industrialisation began "maisterless" Scots (the unemployed) could be and were enslaved, they were whipped and branded for begging and for repeated offending could be hanged or shipped of to the colonies as "Christian servants" (as opposed to Negroes) or could sell themselves as indentured servants to the colonies in Virginia. Slavery in the Coal mines in Scotland was abolished by the Westminster parliament in the 1790s. The social and economic structure that enabled all that was established by Bruce and his fellow "Scots" of Norman descent. Bruce and co. weren't fighting for an independent Scotland, they were fighting for a kingdom and land for themselves. And their descendants are the ones who sold out Scotland in 1603 and 1707.
@@fredgillespie5855 wow , took a while to read all that pish . for a start Norman feudilism was established in Scotland long before The Bruce took the throne ! and you fail to realise he was a legitimate heir to the Scottish throne . your living in some Norman conspiracy bubble . The Bruce lived WITH the common people when he was sheltered as an outlaw , hence one of the reasons he gave aberdeen its great charter . Bruce's fighting men and allies were clans like the Macdonalds , Macgregors etc ...who he spoke the Gaelic tongue with and his closest right hand man was James Douglas , no Norman conspiracies here pal , just blood , guts and death , as his 3 brothers found out to their misfortune . And as for John knox ?? god knows why your bringing him up in a conversation about Robert the Bruce , he probably wanted to use the land of monastries cause they belonged to catholics you pleb , and as for educating people with the money , well we all know what his teachings would be . fire and brimstone and turning people to the 'real' faith . And I'm not even going to bother commenting on the post 1700's nonsense
@@bigboaby555 - The English who were in Malcolm 3rds court were sent packing on Malcolm's death. No more Normans till David i returned from being reared in the English (Norman) court and brought a band of Norman Knights with him (Fitz Alan as High Steward, De Ballol and de Bruce among others.). These soon married in to the Scots nobility and 3 generations later they are fighting each other for the Scottish Crown. The Scottish Crown only controlled part of Scotland, the rest belonged to the Clans and the Vikings. After Bannockburn Bruce set out to Normanise the whole country and bring it to order. That wasn't completed till after 1745 when the "New Parliament of Great Britain," which included some of the descendants of those who signed the Declaration of Arbroath, sent troop to finish the job. The MacDonalds? on a couple of occasions they formed an alliance with English Kings against the Scottish king. "You don't know why I brought Knox into the conversation". A bit slow aren't you. I was talking about the feudal system that Bruce and his pals of Norman descent imposed on Scotland. How at the dissolution of the Monasteries John Knox had wanted to use the Monastery lands for the benefit of the common people by renting them out and using the money to educate the people - all of them. It never happened because our Aristocracy of Norman descent stole it all for themselves. That is why there is such a concentration of land ownership in Scotland till this day. Now, if your tiny mind can't figure out the social and economic consequences of that then you may as well keep banging you big drum for "The Bruce."

Did you know that it was the Westminster parliament that ended slavery in Scotland in the 1790s? That is what Norman King Robert and his "Nobles" gave to Scotland, serfdom and slavery.
@UCIk3074r6jxuGygJ9GvIHaA English point of view you share. Of course you would want Scots, and Irish for that matter to feel like england freed them. You can save you white washing of history. The people you claim were made ‘free’ in 1790. Never asked for anything but to be left alone. Westminster can run England. But they can fuck off from Scotland and Ireland. The votes have always been a sham. You know this. So stop with the propaganda and revisionist history you spell onto us. For I am not feeble minded like the sheep you intend to led to slaughter

Exactly. We need to get focused. Our cause is correct. This is not a fight between Scotland and England as it is being portrayed in the propaganda. Our enemies a a small clique of very rich men in London, who have mainly gone to Eton school.
This song should be about the west coasters of Scotland….because no one from the east of Scotland fought on that field…not one fife baron or Aberdeen one, it was the west and the highlands that won on the field at Bannockburn,…remember that
Exactly. A lot of people are still attacked to the Unionist cause. We must introduce them to a new way, a way of true freedom. The powerful London people are becoming very nasty already, and things will get mch worse. It will be a hard struggle, but we will gain our freedom. We also have many friends internationally and in Europe which they don't have. They are seen as being oppressors, arrogant and exploiters, whereas we are seen as being kind, gentle and brave.
Good stuff! I'm a Scot living in Sweden and it gave me a lump in my throat. I love the way you sing, it sounds very down to earth and genuine. I really hope we get our independence in 2014, but my fear is that there are too many scared people falling for the scaremongering and afraid to take chances. I hope i'm wrong. Scotland forever...

Well said, dangledoop. Excellent song Breenmck, I recognized the title as coming from the Declaration of Abroath and had hopes of a good song. Instead, I got a great one.
No greater Hero ever lived than Robert Bruce, King of Scots. No one ever gave so much and gained so much, not just for himself but for a Nation. The Proud Nation of Scotland, and we are forever in his debt. Thank You Good King Robert !!! forever we scots will honour your deeds...
Amen, Trevor. Those of the diaspora must stand strong for our blood in Scotland. The blood is strong. 'From the lone shieling of the misty island Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas - Yet still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland, And we in dreams behold the Hebrides! Fair these broad meads, these hoary woods are grand; But we are exiles from our fathers' land.' "Canadian Boat Song"

Here's the Lyrics lad, Alba Gu Bràth: There was a king from far away, proud Edward was his name He sought to rule our ancient realm and staked his bluidy claim But Wallace he maun fought them and danced a merry jig When he gied them a’ a bluidy nose doon by Stirlin’ Brig *Chorus* As long as there’s one hundred o’ Scots remain alive We’ll ne’er gie in tae England, oor country will survive We’ll fight tae keep oor freedom and for that prize alone We’ll gie oor lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne But Wallace he was captured and ta’en tae London town They put tae death oor Guardian, but couldn’t tak oor crown For then arose oor Robert for he could not be bought The nobles and the people proclaimed him King o’ Scots *Chorus* O’er many years o’ sturt and strife Bruce ground the English doon Until he fought at Bannockburn and sent them on the run Oor Robert sent them homeward and with his loyal men Proclaimed the land o’ Scotland a nation once again *Chorus* Cam’ all oor noble people, cam’ all oor common Scots Cam’ lend yer name tae Robert, tae rout these English plots Cam’ sign the Declaration that maks oor claim o’ right, We’ll ne’er gie up oor freedom withoot a bluidy fight! *Chorus* As long as there’s one hundred o’ Scots remain alive We’ll ne’er gie in tae England, oor country will survive We’ll fight tae keep oor freedom and for that prize alone |: We’ll gie oor lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne :|
Pisses me of how the English tried to wipe out Gaelic culture and the language of Gaelic and Scots, now a very small percentage of people speak fluent Gaelic and Scots isn’t considered a language anymore by the UK government.
when the time cums for us all to make the last stand i will be thare holding what ever i can yous to defend my people and the nation that has houst me for 18years , sotland belongs to no 1 not even the us scottish for she is free .
Wallace Wallace, he made them flee, he tried to set his country free, Nae braver man you'd likely see, but he lives on now, in you and me. No country can forever claim, to have such men er again, was not for riches that he fought nor the glory it was not. This man stood tall and did not fall, he was defiant of them all. Only when dishonour came, from menteith a hated name, did Scotlands Hero suffer dear, and met his end with no fear. Alba gu Brath Sir William
+Scotty Squatch only because some names were uncommon and some decided to keep the history alive. But being a proud family like we are our lines can over mix (seriously one girl is my sixth, fourth, and First cousin once removed)
Should the day come when Scotland raises arms against England in the name of independence, Scotland will get a soldier out of me. It may have been hundreds of years since my ancestors were forced out, but I'll fight for Scotland's freedom in their name.
Would be amazing if you added something about the modern struggle to a final verse... "And now we look to the future, Divided we still stand. But the Lion is awaking and the true Scots they are glad. The time has come to take what's ours and rid ourselves for good.. Of the bloody cursid English and their imperialistic greed.. ?? Stewart Connor

Lyrics (Non-scots): Words inside the brackets are lyrics I'm unsure of. There was a king from far away, proud Edward was his name. He sought to rule our ancient realm and stake his bloody claim. But Wallace he (idk) fought them and danced a merry jig, when he gave them all a bloody nose down by Stirling bridge. As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive, we'll never give in to England, our country will survive. We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone, we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne. But Wallace he was captured and taken to London town. They put to death our guardian but couldn't take our crown. (For then our old sir) Robert for he could not be bought. The nobels and the people proclaimed him king of Scots. As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive, we'll never give in to England, our country will survive. We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone, we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne. over many years (of strude and strife) Bruce (crowned) the English down, until he fought at Bannockburn and sent them on the run. Our Robert sent them homeward and with his loyal men proclaimed the land of Scotland a nation once again. As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive, we'll never give in to England, our country will survive. We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone, we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne. Come all our Nobel people come all our common Scots. Come lend your name to Robert to rout these English (plots). Come sign the declaration that backs our claim of rights. We'll never give up our freedom without a bloody fight. As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive, we'll never give in to England, our country will survive. We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone, we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne. we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne.
I’ll give my life for Scotland. Robert and his throne are in the distant past. I’ll give my life for Scottish independence.

The Bruce!!!!
Actually should be spelt as "De Brus" he was of Norman heritage you see.
I second these words
Well said, dangledoop. Excellent song Breenmck, I recognized the title as coming from the Declaration of Abroath and had hopes of a good song. Instead, I got a great one.
No greater Hero ever lived than Robert Bruce, King of Scots. No one ever gave so much and gained so much, not just for himself but for a Nation. The Proud Nation of Scotland, and we are forever in his debt.
Thank You Good King Robert !!! forever we scots will honour your deeds...
Ill give my life For Scotland, for Charles and his Throne
Amen, mate. Set our people free from the yoke..
I love this song!!! Keep up the good work!

Vote yes for Scotland be tirned into another little piece of nothing in Europe
Beautiful :)
Amen, Trevor. Those of the diaspora must stand strong for our blood in Scotland. The blood is strong.
'From the lone shieling of the misty island
Mountains divide us, and the waste of seas -
Yet still the blood is strong, the heart is Highland,
And we in dreams behold the Hebrides!
Fair these broad meads, these hoary woods are grand;
But we are exiles from our fathers' land.'
"Canadian Boat Song"
Hope to see you again.. was good talking to ye at Grangemouth
Alba agus Eire go bragh!

I like this. This is Our History that matters to Us.
2 years is as long as it has left then your on your own we've had enough, Time for freedom.!!
Scotland the brave.
Saor Alba,
No Union
Fantastic, as good as "The Flower of Scotland" or "Liberty"
+Ihategiggle gigglesucks Huzzah! Another Corries fan.
+tim biggart I also like many other Scottish Folk groups such as North Sea Gas, I just like good music and voices.
likewise. I also like a lot of Irish folk bands and singers, from Liam Clancy to Garry Og'
+tim biggart Me too, but the idea of Scotland taking itself out of Great Britain warms the cockles of my heart. I was a fan long before Braveheart by the way. I started reenacting the 45 back in 1989.
I agree
Can you give me lyrics, please? :)
I am Greek and i want the lyrics of this awesome song pls :)))
@TheJacobiker Love these lines
I like this very much. I am sure you would like the work of my friend Ian Laidlaw Richardson better known to his friends as Max. I will send you a link to some songs he and I did for a concert last year along with me singing his song Scotland Will Flourish which I believe could and should be Scotland's new National Anthem.
Kind regards from the Isle of Man
Tony
PS I have just come home after a hernia op, so may take a while before I feel up to doing any new videos.I have request in the queue.
Gods bless the Scottish pure bloods
A song worthy of the Corries, well done.
Can I get The lyrics
PS I love this
Alba gu Bràth
Here's the Lyrics lad, Alba Gu Bràth:
There was a king from far away, proud Edward was his name
He sought to rule our ancient realm and staked his bluidy claim
But Wallace he maun fought them and danced a merry jig
When he gied them a’ a bluidy nose doon by Stirlin’ Brig
*Chorus*
As long as there’s one hundred o’ Scots remain alive
We’ll ne’er gie in tae England, oor country will survive
We’ll fight tae keep oor freedom and for that prize alone
We’ll gie oor lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne
But Wallace he was captured and ta’en tae London town
They put tae death oor Guardian, but couldn’t tak oor crown
For then arose oor Robert for he could not be bought
The nobles and the people proclaimed him King o’ Scots
*Chorus*
O’er many years o’ sturt and strife Bruce ground the English doon
Until he fought at Bannockburn and sent them on the run
Oor Robert sent them homeward and with his loyal men
Proclaimed the land o’ Scotland a nation once again
*Chorus*
Cam’ all oor noble people, cam’ all oor common Scots
Cam’ lend yer name tae Robert, tae rout these English plots
Cam’ sign the Declaration that maks oor claim o’ right,
We’ll ne’er gie up oor freedom withoot a bluidy fight!
*Chorus*
As long as there’s one hundred o’ Scots remain alive
We’ll ne’er gie in tae England, oor country will survive
We’ll fight tae keep oor freedom and for that prize alone
|: We’ll gie oor lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne :|
Thanks for the compliment. Much appreciated
Nice one! Saor Alba!
Pisses me of how the English tried to wipe out Gaelic culture and the language of Gaelic and Scots, now a very small percentage of people speak fluent Gaelic and Scots isn’t considered a language anymore by the UK government.
Excellent song. Could you please PM me the chords and lyrics; I want to learn it!
Long live His Majesty Richard Scott lawful King of Scotland!
i love this :D who ever sings well done mate :)
I'm not very good at keeping up with the comments on this song, but thanks for your kind words.
love ya roburt my great x9 granpa im on the Duffus side
Do you have this on a cd album?
@TheJacobiker Good Man.. Let's get Independance.... Freedom!!!!!!!
Cheers,Lads
when the time cums for us all to make the last stand i will be thare holding what ever i can yous to defend my people and the nation that has houst me for 18years , sotland belongs to no 1 not even the us scottish for she is free .
Wallace Wallace, he made them flee, he tried to set his country free, Nae braver man you'd likely see, but he lives on now, in you and me. No country can forever claim, to have such men er again, was not for riches that he fought nor the glory it was not. This man stood tall and did not fall, he was defiant of them all. Only when dishonour came, from menteith a hated name, did Scotlands Hero suffer dear, and met his end with no fear.
Alba gu Brath Sir William
Rise! Rise Son's Of The Heather! Bend Not The Knee Again!.....Sound The Pibroch!!
Independence now 🏴
Mom's family fought for Prince Charlie (Chisholms) yet dad's family is descended from King Edward.... Well then
+Anthony Brett Reynolds Kind of like the Scottish and English version of the Orange and the Green?
+Anthony Brett Reynolds You know more about your Scottish ancestor than me I only go back to my 4th grandfather on that side.
+Scotty Squatch only because some names were uncommon and some decided to keep the history alive.
But being a proud family like we are our lines can over mix (seriously one girl is my sixth, fourth, and First cousin once removed)
+Anthony Brett Reynolds I think we have something like that on my Dads side I still don't know how it all works.
+Anthony Brett Reynolds aye - we're a;; a bunch o Bastards, aye?
More than happy for anyone to perform this song. Only copyrighted it to prevent others for taking the credit for it
Is this your song? What is your name ?
Should the day come when Scotland raises arms against England in the name of independence, Scotland will get a soldier out of me. It may have been hundreds of years since my ancestors were forced out, but I'll fight for Scotland's freedom in their name.
What a song you are a f***ing hero mate lol
Would be amazing if you added something about the modern struggle to a final verse...
"And now we look to the future,
Divided we still stand.
But the Lion is awaking
and the true Scots they are glad.
The time has come to take what's ours and rid ourselves for good..
Of the bloody cursid English and their imperialistic greed.. ??
Stewart Connor
YES for Independence !
Come on SCOTLAND - take your birthright back from these German throwbacks
Stewart Nicol as BILLY CONNOLLY good on ya buddy.
It's on!
Fantastic Song.Very rousing lyrics.I am a Scots/Australian descendant of Robert the Bruce (so of course very bias to the songs meaning).I run a Scots/Australian website australian scottish heritage I would be extremely grateful if you would give me your kind permission to do a link to your song,I think it will be a terrific rallying song,especially at the moment as we go towards the independence vote for Scotland.Trev
Beautiful! Can someone write down the lyrics please?
Lyrics (Non-scots):
Words inside the brackets are lyrics I'm unsure of.
There was a king from far away, proud Edward was his name.
He sought to rule our ancient realm and stake his bloody claim.
But Wallace he (idk) fought them and danced a merry jig, when he gave them all a bloody nose down by Stirling bridge.
As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive,
we'll never give in to England, our country will survive.
We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone,
we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne.
But Wallace he was captured and taken to London town. They put to death our guardian but couldn't take our crown. (For then our old sir) Robert for he could not be bought. The nobels and the people proclaimed him king of Scots.
As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive,
we'll never give in to England, our country will survive.
We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone,
we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne.
over many years (of strude and strife)
Bruce (crowned) the English down, until he fought at Bannockburn and sent them on the run. Our Robert sent them homeward and with his loyal men proclaimed the land of Scotland a nation once again.
As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive,
we'll never give in to England, our country will survive.
We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone,
we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne.
Come all our Nobel people come all our common Scots. Come lend your name to Robert to rout these English (plots). Come sign the declaration that backs our claim of rights. We'll never give up our freedom without a bloody fight.
As long as there's one hundred Scots that remain alive,
we'll never give in to England, our country will survive.
We'll fight to keep our freedom and for that prize alone,
we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne. we'll give our lives for Scotland, for Robert and his throne.
aye from me...
