alastair mcdonald - perfervidum ingenium scotorum. lyrics

[verse 1]
we’re aa met thegither here, but no tae sit an crack
for fortune’s wheel is turnin, birlin fae the black
we lost oor independence, but we’re gaun tae get it back
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[chorus]
wi perfervidum ingenium ye hear the ring o bells
ye watch the wheel o fortune an see whit it fortells:
we’ll win oor independence, ay, by takin it oorsels
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[verse 2]
we dinna want the white moose, we dinnae want the grey
we dinnae want the middle moose thit fears the brek o day
it’s no a time for timorousness. it’s time tae brek away
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[chorus]
wi perfervidum ingenium ye hear the ring o bells
ye watch the wheel o fortune an see whit it fortells:
we’ll win oor independence, ay, by takin it oorsels
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[verse 3]
now there’s some wad sell thir mithers for a ha’penny or a cent
and others sell the scottish folk a puppet parliament
but the rebel wheel is turnin, an we’ll scotch thir ill+intent
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum
[chorus]
wi perfervidum ingenium ye hear the ring o bells
ye watch the wheel o fortune an see whit it fortells:
we’ll win oor independence, ay, by takin it oorsels
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[verse 4]
sae here’s tae george buchanan, he was first tae gie’t a name
an here’s tae william wallace an john maclean
an here’s tae bonnie alba—we’ll see her free again
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum

[chorus]
wi perfervidum ingenium ye hear the ring o bells
ye watch the wheel o fortune an see whit it fortells:
we’ll win oor independence, ay, by takin it oorsels
wi perfervidum ingenium scotorum
