Lyrics:

Air sgiath a' seoladh nan neoil
'S an domhain liath
Mar dhealbh a' tighinn beo tro na
sgothan
'S mi a' tilleadh gu tir

Alba nam beanntan ard
Nan acraichean
lom
Thairis air na lochan mointich
Nan coilltean 's nan gleann

Ach 'se sealladh
leointe is gann
Tha an seo aig ceann thall an linn
Talamh alainn nan daoine
Fhathast
an lamhan duine no dithis

Cuibhlean stolda mu dheas
Na fasaichean a tuath
An
taigh-mor falamh an Dun-Eideann
Gun chumhachd gun ghuth

*Sibhse chuir achadh ri
achadh
Taigh ri taigh
Gus nach bi ait anns an tir
An gabh sibh comhnaidh air
leth

Ach 's math dhomh bhith seo an drasd
A cur failt air a' bhlas
'San tir a
tha cho ur dhomh an diugh
Is a bha i nuair bha mi 'nam phaisd

*Bho Isaiah
5-8

Scotland

This flight is sailing through the clouds
And the blue
heavens
The homeland appears like a developing photograph
Through the mists as I return
to land

I see Scotland of the high mountains
And the empty acres
Flying low
across the moorland lochs
The forests and the glens

But it's a wounding and a
hollow sight
Here as we reach the end of the century
The beautiful soil of the
people
Still in the hands of the few

I see the wheels of industry at a
standstill
And the northern lands wasted
And the empty house in Edinburgh
Without
authority or voice

You that have laid field upon field
House upon
house
Till there be nowhere for you to be placed alone
In the midst of all the
earth

But it is good for me to be here now
As I welcome the warmth
In this
land that's as exciting for me today
As it was the day I was born
