The Battle Of Bannockburn
Highlanders' Triumph: Battle of Bannockburn Unveiled
Lyrics
The wind lashed in our faces
The wind is harsh against us.
The English found our traces
The English have discovered our presence.
On moss-covered land
On land covered in moss.
Scotland we defend
We are defending Scotland.
At Stirling bridge we try to last
Attempting to endure at Stirling Bridge.
But we fail to stand fast
We fail to hold our ground.
Blood mingles with pouring rain
Blood mixes with the pouring rain.
Writing tales of pain
Recording stories of pain.
Help - Else we will perish
Seeking help, fearing we may perish.
Help - Else we will vanish
Reiterating the plea for assistance.
Look - Heaven's sign
Observing a sign from heaven.
Look - Ship's graceful lines
Noticing the graceful lines of a ship.
White knights appear
White knights emerge.
Silhouetted against the dark
Silhouetted against the darkness.
In the battle of Bannockburn
In the Battle of Bannockburn.
The table turns
The tide of the battle changes.
Few knights appear
A few knights appear.
But masters of the fight
Skilled masters of the fight.
In the battle of Bannockburn
In the Battle of Bannockburn.
The table turns
The turning point of the battle.
They draw their glaming swords
They unsheath their shining swords.
Two knights one horse
Two knights, one horse.
How they swing their flail
Swinging their flail in combat.
Ending the bloody tale
Concluding the bloody tale.
Just like a bad dream
Similar to a disturbing dream.
English disappear in fog
The English forces vanish in the fog.
Finally - Victory
Finally, achieving victory.
Highlanders' victory
A victory for the Highlanders.
