Here’s A Health To Them That’s Awa

Here’s a health to them that’s awa,
Here’s a health to them that’s awa;
And wha winnawish gude luck to our cause,
May never gude luck be their fa’!
It’s gude to be merry and wise,
It’s gude to be honest and true;
It’s gudeto support Caledonia’s cause,
And bidebythe buff and the blue.

Here’s a health to them that’s awa,
Here’s a health to them that’s awa,
Here’s a health to Charlie^1the chief o’ the clan,
Altho’ that his band be but sma’!
May Liberty meet wi’success!
May Prudence protect her fraeevil!
May tyrants and tyranny tinei’the mist,
And wander their way to the devil!

Here’s a health to them that’s awa,
Here’s a health to them that’s awa;
Here’s a health to Tammie,^2the Norlan’ laddie,
That lives at the lugo’ the law!
Here’s freedom to them that wad read,
Here’s freedom to them that wad write,

There’s naneever fear’d that the truth should be heard,
Butthey whom the truth would indite.

Here’s a Health to them that’s awa,
An’here’s to them that’s awa!
Here’s to Maitland and Wycombe, let wha doesna like ’em
Be built in a hole in the wa’;
Here’s timmerthat’s redat the heart
Here’s fruit that is sound at the core;
And may he be that wad turn the buffand blue coat
Be turn’d to the back o’ the door.

Here’s a health to them that’s awa,
Here’s a health to them that’s awa;
Here’s chieftain M’Leod, a chieftain worthgowd,
Tho’ bred amangmountains o’ snaw;
Here’s friends on baith sides o’ the firth,
And friends on baithsides o’the Tweed;
And whawadbetray old Albion’s right,
May they never eat of her bread!
