Flower of Scotland

As Scotland is currently part of the United Kingdom and thus officially falls under the British national anthem, the popular and powerful "Flower of Scotland" has been adopted as the country's rugby anthem. Written in the 1960's, it began to be sung at Scotland games during the 1970's. It celebrates the Scottish victory over the English king Edward II at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.

O 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.
