When I leave this world behind me
                      
To another I will go
                        
If there are no pipes in heaven
                  
I’ll be going down below

                          
If friends in time be severed
                            
Someday we will meet again
                            
I’ll return to leave you never
                      
Be a piper to the end

This has been a day to die for
                             
Now the day has almost gone
                   
Up above a choir of seabirds
                          
Turns to face the setting sun

                            
Now the evening dawn is calling
                                   
And all the hills are burning red
                                
And before the night comes falling
                                        
Clouds are lined with golden thread


                            
We watched the fires together
                             
Shared our quarters for a while
                 
Walked the dusty roads together
                   
Came so many miles


                            
This has been a day to die on
                            
Now the day is almost done
                            
Here the pipes    will lay beside me
                           
Silent will the battle drum

                            
If friends in time be severed
                                 
Someday here we will meet again
                         
I return to leave you never
                        
Be a piper to the end
