Robert Burns

    When we gaed to the braes o' Mar,
    And to the wapon-shaw, Willie,
    Wi' true design to serve the king
    And banish whigs awa, Willie.
    Up and warn a' Willie,
    Warn, warn a';
    To hear my cantie Highland sang,
    Relate the thing I saw, Willie.
    For Lords and lairds came there bedeen
    And wow but they were braw, Willie.
    But when the standard was set up
    Right fierce the wind did blaw, Willie;
    The royal nit upon the tap
    Down to the ground did fa', Willie.
    Up and warn a', Willie,
    Warn, warn a';
    Then second-sighted Sandie said
    We'd do nae gude at a', Willie.
    But when the army join'd at Perth,
    The bravest ere ye saw, Willie,
    We didna doubt the rogues to rout,
    Restore our king and a', Willie.
    Up and warn a'Willie,
    Warn, warn a';
    The pipers play'd frae right to left
    O whirry whigs awa, Willie.
    But when we march'd to Sherramuir
    And there the rebels saw, Willie;
    Brave Argyle attack'd our right,
    Our flank and front and a,, Willie.
    Up and warn a', Willie,
    Warn, warn a',
    Traitor Huntly sooin gave way
    Seaforth, St. Clair and a'Willie.
    But brave Glengary on our right,
    The rebel's left did claw, Willie,
    He there the greatest slaughter made
    That ever Donald saw, Willie.
    Up and warn a', Willie,
    Warn, warn a',
    And Whittam shat his breeks for fear
    And fast did rin awa', Willie.
    For he ca'd us a Highland mob
    And soon he'd slay us a', Willie;
    But we chas'd him back to Stirling brig
    Dragoons and foot and a', Willie.
    Up and warn a'Willie,
    Warn, warn a',
    At length we rallied on a hill
    An briskly up did draw, Willie.
