Here's to the Scottish Soldiers

Here's to the men of the Scottish Division
From the time the world began
And here is to the Pipes and drums as they march
Each man to serve his Clan
Remember the Seaforths, the Camerons, the Argylls
The Black Watch, the Gordons with their cocky wee smiles
The Cameronians, The Royal Scots and the KOSB
The HLI, the Greys and the Bold Fusilier with a glint in his eee'
Think of their honors, in battles they have won
Think of the fathers, the brothers, the sons
Think of the scars that we cannot see
And the lands far away ,that they have set free
Now Honor these men from the present to the past
With great pride in your heart and thoughts that will last

by Jonn Bearcat-Redmond (MelodeonMan)
