No more the trumpet calls to arms,
Ay.-aki.nfj battles fierce alarms;
But every heroes bosom warms
With song's of exultation.
While brave Lochicl at length regains,
Thro 1 toils of -war, his native plains,
And won by glorious wounds, attains,
His high paternal station.
M'.' I. cod, M'J Donald, join the strain,
M'. TMicrson, Fraser, and M'.- Lean,
Thro all jour bounds let gladness reig'n,
Botii prince and patriot praising »•
Whose generous bounty richly pours
The streams of plenty round vour shores.
To Scotia's hills their pride restores,.
Her faded honours raising.
Let now the voice of joy prevail,
And echo wide Irom hill to vale>
Ye warlike Clans, arise, and hail
Your laurell d Chief's returning.
Oir ev'ry mount ain,cvry isle,
Let peace in all her lustre smile,
\nd discord ncer her day defile
With sullen shades of mourning'.
Let all the joyous hancjuet share,
Nor eer Jet Gothic grandeur dare,
With scowling brow, to overbear
A vassals rights invading;
Let freedoms conscious sons disdain
To croud his fawning timid train,
Nor even own his haughty reign,
Their dignity degrading.
Ye northern Chiefs, whose rage,tmbroke,
Has still repcll'd the tyrant., shock,
Mho ncer ha\e bowd beneaih her yoke
With servile base prostration ;
Let each now train his trusty band,
'G-ainst foreign foes alone to stand,
With undivided heart and band
For freedom, king" and nation.
