Roses O' Prince Charlie

Come now, gather round here where the flowers grow

White as the blossom as the snow on the ben

Hear now freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow

Now by the roses of Prince Charlie

Hire again at Bannockburn your battle axe to wield

Fight with your grandsires at Flodden's bloody field

Hire at Culloden the bonny Prince to shield

Fight by the roses of Prince Charlie

Come now, gather round here where the flowers grow

White as the blossom as the snow on the ben

Hear now freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow

Now by the roses of Prince Charlie

Spirits of the banished, in foreign distant land

Carved out a new world with sweat, blood and hand

Return now in glory upon the silver sand

Fight by the roses of Prince Charlie

Come now, gather round here where the flowers grow

White as the blossom as the snow on the ben

Hear now freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow

Now by the roses of Prince Charlie

Back yest went through the green field the black pit and coal

The ships on the Clyde with the nation in their hold

The waters of life some men did to make them bold

Black golden fishes fae the sea man

Come now, gather round here where the flowers grow

White as the blossom as the snow on the ben

Hear now freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow

Now by the roses of Prince Charlie
