     And bide by the buff and the blue.

Here's a health to Charlie, the chief o' the clan,
     Altho that his band be sma'!
May Liberty meet wi success,
     May Prudence protect her frae evil!
May tyrants and Tyranny tine i' the mist
     And wander their way to the Devil!

Here's a health to them that's awa,
     Here's a health to them that's awa;
Here's a health to Tammie, the Norlan' laddie,
     That lives at the lug o' the Law!

     Here's freedom to them that would write!

     But they whom the truth would indite!

Here's a health to them that's awa,
     An here's to them that's awa!

     Here's fruit that is sound at the core,
And may he that wad turn the buff and blue coat
     Be turn'd to the back o' the door!

Here's a health to them that's awa,

     Tho' bred amang mountains o' snaw!
Here's friends on baith sides o' the Firth,
     And friends on baith sides o' the Tweed,
And wha wad betray old Albion's right,
     May they never eat of her bread!
