Back to On wi' the Tartan
ON WI' THE TARTAN. Scottish, Jig. B Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. At the second relief of Lucknow, India, the pipers of the 93rd Highlanders played "On wi' the Tartan."
Ay! on wi' the tartan, the black plumes are wavin',
Nae longer oor flags noo in peace may be furled;
The war-cloud has fallen, oor foemen are ravin',
An' foremost against them the tartan is hurled.
