THE BATTLE CLOSES DEEP AND BLOODY

from SOMETHING IN US NEVER DIES by Laurie Cameron

about

Taken from 'My Bonie Mary' (1788) by Robert Burns

lyrics

Fetch to me a pint o' wine,
Fill it in a silver tassie;
That I may drink before I go,
A service to my bonie lassie.
The boat rocks at the pier o' Leith;
And loud the wind blaws frae the Ferry;
The ship rides by the Berwick-law,
And I maun leave

Trumpets sound, the banners fly,
The glittering spears ranked ready:
Shouts o' war are heard afar,
The battle closes deep and bloody;
It's not the roar o' sea or shore,
That make me longer wish to tarry!
Nor shouts o' war heard afar-
It's leaving thee
