Je score:
Fareweel to a' our Scottish fame Fareweel our ancient glory Fareweel e'en to the Scottish name So famed in martial story Now Sark runs to the Solway sands And Tweed runs to the ocean To mark where England's province stands Such a parcel o' rogues in a nation What force or guile could not subdue Through many warlike ages Is wrought now by a coward few For hireling traitor's wages Secure in valour's station But English gold has been our bane Such a parcel o' rogues in a nation O would ere I had seen the day That treason thus could sell us My auld grey heid had lien in clay Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace But pith find power till my last hour I'll mak this declaration We're bought and sold for English gold Such a parcel o' rogues in a nation
