Know how you feel pal ,I'm Scottish living in England and I would have been a Jacobite by bonnie prince Charlie's side and getting rid of Hanoverian pretenders to the throne,which should have stayed Stuart's.
My mother with her seven children ready to board the bus to take her to the airport, going to a new world to meet up with her husband, and her family singing this to her. We were all given big hankies for that night time bus ride. I was confused why my mother, her parents and older siblings were crying. I was six, the eldest, 15. My mother cried in her new country from home sickness. She was well loved by her parents and brothers. This song always has me greetin'.
We had a king, Sebastian the first of his name and the last on the line of his house. Was a brat that grew with stories of his ancestors prowess and aimed at a very young age to achieve the same glory as them. He was still a teen when he went to north africa, the nobles did not like the idea to move away with no prepared plan, as such that he disapeared amidst the tragic battle of Alcacer Quibir, without his fellows know if he was taken captive or if he died in battle. Yet the people still loved their king and needed him for the kingdom would loose its independence without him. And they hoped for his return amidst the days when the fog is at its thickest. Today people still hope that our king will return when our country is at the brink of extintion
When the great golfer , Bobby Jones, crippled by syringomyelia and standing only with help and crutches, addressed the Royal and Ancient in St. Andrews in 1958, the gathered people spontaneously broke into this song, knowing he would never be able to return.
+Cranston Cederlind Really? I never heard that before and I grew up in a family of Bobby Jones admirers. Probably they would not have picked up on that, though....
Yes, it was shown on a documentary on Bobby Jones . . . very moving. "He said near the end of his talk, 'I could take out of my life everything except my experiences at St. Andrews and I'd still have a rich, full life.' He left the stage and got into his electric golf cart. As he directed it down the center aisle to leave, the whole hall spontaneously burst into the old Scottish song, Will Ye No' Come Back Again? So honestly heartfelt was this reunion for Bobby Jones and the people of St. Andrews (and for everyone) that it was 10 minutes before many who attended were able to speak again with a tranquil voice."
A good song for the lost. For who does not wish for beloved and prodigal alike to return to their proper place? To provide a proper ending, as it were.
Here's tae the King Sir--ye ken wha I mean Sir. And tae every honest man that would dae it again. Here's tae the chieftains o' a' the Hieland clans They dared mair than once, and will dare it again When ye hear the pipes sound "Tootie tattie" tae the drum. Then up your sword and doon your gun, and tae the rouges again
I'm of English heritage, and I'm ashamed of what the Duke of Cumberland and his redcoats did after Culloden. I don't blame any Scot for wanting indy after the way you were treated.
Everyone here is telling sad stories and I’m only here because Donald and Douglas sing this to Stepney when he leaves Sodor and I wanted to hear what the song sounded like.
Alba fucked, gambled away by him. Never recalled our parlt, + his objective was to rule all Britain from London + to regress our government from Prime Ministers back to Kings.
Most injustices are caused by the rich taking advantage of the poor, the common Englishman has nothing against the common Irishman. We're all just slaves to the 1% in my opinion.
Not on the battlefield, but he did disguise himself as a lady in waiting to a Scottish noble-woman, as he was trying to rendezvous with a ship to escape. The noblewoman was brought to trial for aiding his escape but was spared by King George. Her name was Flora MacDonald. www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/resources/jacobite-1745/flora-macdonald/
I'm not even Scottish, hell, I'm Indian. And still, there are tears rolling down my cheek.
Empire Entertainment aye we’ll your books full of shite 🏴🇻🇦🇮🇪
It's US the people Everywhere against the so called elite, brother.

I love foreign Scotsmen, Born in Edinburgh, broght up in the Borders. I live in the South West of England. This is home.
Born in the BGH, brought up in the Borders. Live in the Borders. Feel like I'll have a long history wi this place by the time am gone.
Special song that reflects all those we have lost in previous lifetimes.
Jacobitism will never die! There are still a noble few who fight for justice.

From across the pond
Long live KING FRANZ
DUKE OF BAVARIA, KING OF ENGLAND, KING OF SCOTLAND,LORD OF IRELAND,AND EMPEROR
@leonard bolton Hey Jude.
Seamus a caca and his run away son left the people to pay for their adventures. Death to the aristocrats- up the Jacobins!
Can't think of a more beautiful song dedicated to a less worthy man.
God bless you Charlie
best rendition ever.....thanks
A good song for the lost. For who does not wish for beloved and prodigal alike to return to their proper place? To provide a proper ending, as it were.
Gaberlunzie are my favourite singers of Scotish music - thank you so much for sharing this one!
true story, some brave badass marched against the Nazi's in World War 2 with a claymore sword and playing this song on his bag pipes
Fighting jack Churchill
You mean John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill
This legend used a bow and arrow. What a beast. British icon.
Mad Jack Churchill: Balls of Steel
Mad Jack Thorpe Fleming Churchill
The best version I've heard. thank u for posting.
My favorite Jacobite song
This song triggers my Scottish genes. It's in the blood.
Here's tae the King Sir--ye ken wha I mean Sir.
And tae every honest man that would dae it again.
Here's tae the chieftains o' a' the Hieland clans
They dared mair than once, and will dare it again
When ye hear the pipes sound "Tootie tattie" tae the drum.
Then up your sword and doon your gun, and tae the rouges again
I love this song.
proud to have seen this pair sing and i greet tae..
This is a beautiful song.
In Enterprising Engines, Donald and Douglas sing this to Flying Scotsman when he leaves Sodor.
Flying Scotsman leaving Sodor in the books
The Forgotten Highlander brought me here.
I met hi on two seperate occasions.
A great man, great man.
I'd love to hear of this person
What?
First heard this in the movie Gunga Din. Never fails to stir my emotions.
Alba Gu Brath.
RIP Sean Connery.
Connery loved Scotland so much that he couldn't bear to live there!
This makes me greet
Beautiful-thank you for posting!
Love this song ,
I'm of English heritage, and I'm ashamed of what the Duke of Cumberland and his redcoats did after Culloden. I don't blame any Scot for wanting indy after the way you were treated.
Brilliant Jacobite ,song ,this should be in Outlander.
Everyone here is telling sad stories and I’m only here because Donald and Douglas sing this to Stepney when he leaves Sodor and I wanted to hear what the song sounded like.
Actually it was Flying Scotsman. Or maybe both.
God save the queen, supposedly this was a song she loved
Ironic, considering she was related to German George and wouldn't have had her position if Charles Stewart had been victorious.
Excellent verssion of a beautiful song.
Bonnie Prince Charlie - Alba Gu Brath.
Sãor alba gú bráth
Alba fucked, gambled away by him. Never recalled our parlt, + his objective was to rule all Britain from London + to regress our government from Prime Ministers back to Kings.

Mad Jack Churchill - Alba gu bráth!

😂😂😂😂 Acting like you knew a man that's been dead for over 200 years.
Now we serve our English masters like orcs from mordor. At least the irish kept up the fight., 🏴🇻🇦🇮🇪

Maybe one day a Stuart will inherit and bonnie Charlie will nae will have died in vain
If their still is living Stuart’s I haven’t checked

Bonnie Prince Charlie never cared less about the highlanders who were butchered for him.
sorry---answered the top one, then read down further. Yes, stone me.
Didnt Charlie drink tea and watch as his men were slaughtered then dress up like a woman to avoid being captured? Heard this from a friend
Hanoverian lies clearly
Pot ma hom
@@paullovatt2986 two things. One that's irish. Two you spelled it wrong. Jackass
