How did your fair go today Fly?

lalalalala
I've seen lots of bonnie lassies travellin' far and wide,
But my heart is centred noo on bonnie Kate McBride;
And altho' I'm no a chap that throws a word away,
I'm surprised mysel' at times at a' I've got to say


Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest, that's the time that I like best,
O, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'!

One nicht in the gloamin' we were trippin' side by side.
I kissed her twice, and asked her once if she would be my bride;
She was shy, and so was I, we were baith the same,
But I got brave and braver on the journey comin' hame.

Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest, that's the time that I like best,
O, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'!

Last nicht efter strollin' we got hame at half-past nine.
Sittin' at the kitchen fire I asked her to be mine.
When she promised I got up and danced the Hielan' Fling;
I've just been to the jewellers and I've picked a nice wee ring.

Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest, that's the time that I like best,
O, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'!

O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND

Match Day Version

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


Those days are passed 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

SOUTH AFRICA’s ANTHEM ... NKOSI SIKELEL iAFRICA

Since 1997, the South African national anthem has been a hybrid song combining new English lyrics with extracts of the hymn 'Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika' (God Bless Africa) and 'Die Stem van Suid-Afrika' (The Call of South Africa).

Language: XHOSA
Lyrics: Nkosi sikelel’ iAfrica, Maluphakanyisw uphono Iwayo
(God bless Africa, Let it’s horn be raised)

Lyrics: Yizwa imithandazo yethu, Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo
(Listen also to our prayers, Lord bless us, we are the family of it (Africa)

Language: SESOTHO
Lyrics: Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso. O fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho.
O se boloke. O se boloke setjhaba sa heso, Setjhaba sa, South Afrika, South Afrika .
English Translation: Lord bless our nation. Stop wars and sufferings. Save it, save our nation, the nation of South Africa, South Africa.

Language: AFRICAANS
Lyrics: Uit die blou van onse hemel, uit die diepte van ons see,
Oor ons ewige gebergtes, waar die kranse antwoord gee,
English Translation: From the blue of our skies,
From the depth of our sea, over everlasting mountains,
Where the echoing cliffs resound in answer

Language: ENGLISH
Lyrics: Sounds the call to come together and united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom in South Africa our land.
