Flower of Scotland

El domingo, como cada vez que juegan los Braveharts, se canta la canción que hace de himno extraoficial de los escoceses.
Hoy me puse a buscar la letra completa, porque me quedó picando eso de "to be a nation again".
Muy interesante:

Oh Flower of Scotland,

When will we see

Your like again,

That fought and died for,

Your wee bit Hill and Glen,

And stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again.

The Hills are bare now,

And Autumn leaves

Lie thick and still,

O'er land that is lost now,

Which those so dearly held,

That stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again.

Those days are past now,

And in the past

they must remain,

But we can still rise now,

And be the nation again,

That stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again.

0h Flower of Scotland,

When will we see

Your like again,

That fought and died for,

Your wee bit Hill and Glen,

And stood against him,

Proud Edward's Army,

And sent him homeward,

Tae think again.

Un par de líneas que merecen subrayarse: "Those days are past now, and in the past they must remain", a pesar de que "we can still rise now, And be the nation again".

Good lesson.
