|
The moon's on the lake, and the mist's on the brae, |
|
And the Clan has a name that is nameless by day; |
|
Our signal for fight, that from monarchs we drew, |
|
Must be heard but by night in our vengeful haloo! |
|
Then haloo, haloo, haloo, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
If they rob us of name, and pursue us with beagles, |
|
Give their roofs to the flame, and their flesh to the eagles! |
|
Then gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
While there's leaves in the forest, and foam on the river, |
|
MacGregor, despite them, shall flourish for ever! |
|
Glen Orchy's proud mountains, |
|
Coalchuirn and her towers, |
|
Glenstrae and |
|
Glenlyon no longer are ours; |
|
We're landless, landless, landless, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Landless, landless, landless, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Through the depths of |
|
Loch Katrine the steed shall career, |
|
O'er the peak of |
|
Ben-Lomond the galley shall steer, |
|
And the rocks of |
|
Craig-Royston like icicles melt, |
|
Ere our wrongs be forgot, or our vengeance unfelt! |
|
Then haloo, haloo, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
If they rob us of name, and pursue us with beagles, |
|
Give their roofs to the flame, and their flesh to the eagles! |
|
Then gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach!. |
|
While there's leaves in the forest, and foam on the river, |
|
MacGregor, despite them, shall flourish for ever! |
|
Then gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
|
Gather, gather, gather, &c. |
|
Gather, gather, gather, |
|
Grigalach! |
