There's a tyrant that threatens Scotch thistles to heel, But we'll gag? him awa' ? frae the yaird at Glenshiel." Then up roar the Scots frae the mines frae the dorps? And swore they was fecht till the Kaiser's a corpse. When the Kaiser got word ? he swore like the sleil, That he kens he's no match for the men o' Glenshiel.

Then here's to the Scottish in Khaki and kilt, The sub that will sink them has never been built, When we welcome them home 'twill be said, 'They facht weel.
