Highlanders and Islanders

I look to the east, I look to the north, I look to the south and to the isles,

with sword in hand I'll defend this land, drinkin and fightin all the while.

Chorus

Highlanders and Islanders will stand by you till the death

highlanders and islanders the best.

I love tae roam in my mountain home, my sword and dirk by my side

in this land I'll make my stand, for I know the truth of highland pride

chorus

Oh set me free by my home the sea I know I'll return once more

Through peace and war through calm and storm, I know the isles'll be waiting there for me.

Chorus

So bury me in mountain or sea, mourn for me nae muir.

My life was long, my heart was strong I knew what I was fighting for.

Chorus

Highlanders and islanders the best

Highlanders and Islanders the best

Highlanders and Islanders till death.
