argue not among our own
red lion with calm head
united we can stand alone
then scotlands proudly said
weak folk who never stand
red lion holds firm ground
would give up sacred land
defeated make not a sound
look around stake a claim
red lion with caution leaps
board our own freedom train
before old ben nevis weeps
hear lone pipers skirl abound
red lion looks through mist
those that only hang around
one day will not be missed
feel that patriots inner rush
red lion beckons you near
threats we must now hush
freedoms live with-out fear
raised rampant held so high
red lion makes bold stand
futures child will know why
independence is for scotland
the red lion rampant is the historical royal flag of ancient scotland that has been flown proudly on some of the bloodiest battlefields the world has ever known in defense of a small proud nation the lions heart.......scotland...aye
