Sound the Pibroch

Irish Song Lyrics - Sound the Pibroch

Sound the pibroch loud and high
Frae John o' Groats to the Isle of Skye
Let all the clans, their slogans cry
And rise to follow Charlie

Chorus:
Hatcheen-fo am fo am and fo am
Hatcheen-fo am fo am and fo am
Hatcheen-fo am fo am and fo am
Rise and follow Charlie

And see a small devoted band
By dark Loch Shiel have ta'en their stand
And proudly vow with heart and hand
To fight for Royal Charlie

Chorus

On dark Culloden's field of gore
Hark! Hark! they shout Claymore! Claymore!
They bravely fight, what can they more?
They die for Royal Charlie

Chorus

No more we'll see such deeds again
Deserted is each highland glen
Lonely cairns lie over the men
The men who died for Charlie

Chorus
