Does haughty Gaul invasion threat?
Then let the louns beware, Sir;
There’s wooden walls upon our seas,
And volunteers on shore, Sir:
The Nith shall run to Corsincon,
And Criffel sink in Solway,
Erewe permit a Foreign Foe
On British ground to rally!
We’ll ne’er permit a Foreign Foe
On British ground to rally!
O let us not, like snarling curs,
In wrangling be divided,
Till, slap! come in anuncoloun,
And wi’a rungdecide it!
Be Britain still to Britain true,
Amangourselves united;
For never but by British hands
MaunBritish wrangs be righted!
No! never but by British hands
Shall British wrangs be righted!
The Kettle o’the Kirkand State,
Perhaps a cloutmay fail in’t;
But deila foreign tinklerloun
Shall ever ca’a nail in’t.
Our father’s blude the Kettle bought,
And whawaddare to spoil it;
By Heav’ns! the sacrilegious dog
Shall fuel be to boil it!
ByHeav’ns! the sacrilegious dog
Shall fuel be to boil it!
The wretch that would a tyrant own,
And the wretch, his true-born brother,
Who would setthe Mob aboonthe Throne,
May they be damn’d together!
Who will not sing “God save the King,”
Shall hang as high’s the steeple;
But while we sing “God save the King,”
We’ll ne’er forget The People!
Butwhile we sing “God save the King,”
We’ll ne’er forget The People!
