Lyrics: Sacred Land

I pished into the mist and saw two gnarled and craggy men

They were battle scarred and weary, they'll never fight again

Once raw and bitter enemies, these fearsome Highland lords

They've done with all the feuding, and put away their swords

A holy stone on sacred land

A legend in the glen of Creag an Tuirc

They placed their weapons on the ground, set them softly in the moss

One upon the other, chipped and laid across

The futile bloody memories of all o' that and more

Those brave and ancient clansmen had done with making war

A holy stone on sacred land

Buried in the glen of Creag an Tuirc

In the day, it was man to man

Eye to eye and hand to hand

Die with honour or live with heart

Every man stood up to play his part

A skirling whiff of danger brought a glint into their eyes

Marauders and intruders, the old men slowly rise

With claymores at the ready, they'll no' be having that

Once again they will be fighting, but now it's back-to-back

A holy stone on sacred land

Forever in the glen of Creag an Tuirc
