Lyrics:


When i leave this world behind me
To another i will go
If there are no pipes in heaven
I`ll be going down below

If friends in time be severed
Someday we will meet again
I`ll return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end

This has been a day to die fo
Now the day has almost gone
Up above a choir of seabirds
Turns to face the setting sun

Now the evening dawn is calling
And all the hills are burning red
And before the night comes falling
Clouds are lined with golden thread

We watched the fires together
Shared our quarters for a while
Walked the dusty roads together
Came so many miles

This has been a day to die on
Now the day is almost done
Here the pipes will lay beside me
Silent will the battle drum

If friends in time be severed
Someday here we will meet again
I return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end

  • @jjmmcc01 Good to hear ! My grandfather (died before I was born) fought with the Seathforth Highlanders during the First World War - I wish I'd known him.

  • @piperbob2

    The pipes will be forever.

    Wonderful, Give the Scots the pipers and all will follow. My greatly missed grandfather was a piper from the Cameron Highlanders and piped in El Alamein.
