Up And Warn A Willie — текст песни (Burns Robert)





Up and Warn a` Willie
(Robert Burns)
When we gaed to the braes o` Mar,
And to the wapon-shaw, Willie,
Wi` true design to serve the king
And banish whigs awa, Willie.
Up and warn a` Willie,
Warn, warn a`;
To hear my cantie Highland sang,
Relate the thing I saw, Willie.
For Lords and lairds came there bedeen
And wow but they were braw, Willie.
But when the standard was set up
Right fierce the wind did blaw, Willie;
The royal nit upon the tap
Down to the ground did fa`, Willie.
Up and warn a`, Willie,
Warn, warn a`;
Then second-sighted Sandie said
We`d do nae gude at a`, Willie.
But when the army join`d at Perth,
The bravest ere ye saw, Willie,
We didna doubt the rogues to rout,
Restore our king and a`, Willie.
Up and warn a`Willie,
Warn, warn a`;
The pipers play`d frae right to left
O whirry whigs awa, Willie.
But when we march`d to Sherramuir
And there the rebels saw, Willie;
Brave Argyle attack`d our right,
Our flank and front and a,, Willie.
Up and warn a`, Willie,
Warn, warn a`,
Traitor Huntly sooin gave way
Seaforth, St. Clair and a`Willie.
But brave Glengary on our right,
The rebel`s left did claw, Willie,
He there the greatest slaughter made
That ever Donald saw, Willie.
Up and warn a`, Willie,
Warn, warn a`,
And Whittam shat his breeks for fear
And fast did rin awa`, Willie.
For he ca`d us a Highland mob
And soon he`d slay us a`, Willie;
But we chas`d him back to Stirling brig
Dragoons and foot and a`, Willie.
Up and warn a`Willie,
Warn, warn a`,
At length we rallied on a hill
An briskly up did draw, Willie.
