 Scotland  will flourish by the sweat  of our labour
 The strength  of our will  and the force of our mind
 Forget  the old battles, those  days are over
 Hatred  corrupts  and friendship  refines
 Let the Scots  be a nation so proud  of their heritage
 Wi' an eye  to the future and a  heart to forgive
 And let  us be rid of those bigots  and fools
 Who will  not let Scotland live  and let live
 Let us govern our country wisely  and fairly
 Let each  man and woman  work with a will
 And Scotland  will flourish secure  in the knowledge
 That we reap  our own harvest  and ring  our own till
 And let  us be known for our kind  hospitality
 A hand  that is openly proffered  to friends
 A hard  working people, proud  and unbending
 Scotland will thrive  and win out  in the end
 Aye, Scotland  will flourish by the sweat  of our labour
 The strength  of our will  and the force of our mind
 Forget  the old battles, those  days are over
 Hatred  corrupts  and friendship  refines
 So let  us be known for our kind  hospitality
 A hand  that is openly proffered  to friends
 A hard  working people, proud  and unbending
 Scotland will thrive  and win out  in the end
