By Geordie McIntyre

lyrics

Frae Gulabeinn bell heathered slopes
His dust wis scattered tae the sky
Particles o sang unite
Wi trilling curlew cry.

This mystic hill o youth an age
Towers ower the faerie glen
Banner bricht in May morn licht
Tae welcome Hamish hame

Frae Glenshee tae Sicily
Aa the airts the winds dae blaw
‘Come gies a sang’, cried Seamus Mhor,
‘Let the music flow’

A sang tae cheer a weary heart
Ain tae drive awa dull care
Tales o comradeship an’ hope
That we aa can share

Rabbie Burns an’ Thomas Paine,
Gramsci. Lorca, John Maclean,
Listen tae their clarion ca’
Let peace an’ freedom reign

Aa the sacrifices made
Dinnae let them be betrayed
Raise yer voices, stand as yin
Is the sang fae Gulabeinn
