The Many Highland Men
All the battles that you fought
Never one we forgot
Your souls still fighting to this day
For Scotlands Freedom we do say
You highland men were Bravely Slain
Your ghosts we see through the rain
Your spirits whistle upon the wind
Ready for another battle to begin
Your Bravery still talked about today
Your memory will never go away
You plowed the path with Blood and Sweat
Future generations will never forget
Tha sinn na h-Alba

It is said that the mists which settle here are the souls of our slain and fallen, of our Kith and our kin. That the graves of those who passed from a bloody path where often marked by a lone tree standing on the slopes where they rest. Thank you for your write Sapphire Wolf.

I am so moved that you found this piece enjoyable. That means so much to me, coming from someone who's home and people I specifically wrote this for 💙. The language and the hills draw me in. But nothing more sweet than the sound of Julie fowlis, with her voice of gold.
