[00:40.50
There was a soldier, a Scottish soldier
Who wandered far away, and soldiered far away
There was non bolder, with good broad shoulder
He's fought in many a fray, and fought and won.
He's seen the glory, and told the story
Of battles glorious, and deeds victorious
But now he's sighing, his heart is crying
To leave these green hills of Tyrol

Who wandered far away, and soldiered far away
Sees leaves are falling, and death is calling
And he will fade away, in that far land
He's called his piper his trusty piper
And bade him sound alay, A pi-broch sad to play
Up on a hillside, but Scottish hillside
Not on these green hills of Tyrol...
Will wander far no more, and soldier far no more
And on a hillside, a Scottish hillside
You'll see a piper play his soldier home
He's seen the glory, he's told the story
Of battles glourious and deeds victorious
The bugles cease now, he is at peace now
Far from those green hills of Tyrol...
