SCOTLAND'S LION WILL ROAR AGAIN Scotland, thou who faced the darkness Yet came through with head held high; Scotland, thou who scorned surrender Yet with pride refused to die. Throw away your robes of mourning Set aside your ball and chain. Raise your eyes towards the dawning For your time has come again. Chorus Hear the pibroch bravely sounding As the tide of darkness turns. See the flickering lamps of freedom Light the hearts where freedom burns. Watch the fiery cross of justice Carried forth through hill and glen. Know with all the strength within us Scotland's Lion will roar again. Scotland, thou who hates oppression, Show the world the face that's free. Thou who Wallace bled and died for, Who with Bruce won victory, Lift your hearts again to greatness Grasp once more your destiny. Scotland, we your children love you. Scotland, we'll be true to thee. Chorus Hear the pibroch bravely sounding As the tide of darkness turns. See the flickering lamps of freedom Light the hearts where freedom burns. Watch the fiery cross of justice Carried forth through hill and glen. Know with all the strength within us Scotland's Lion will roar again. From Mary Queen of Scots – The Musical 1992
