"Scotland the Brave" (Gaelic: Alba an Aigh).. A view of the amazing Scottish country taken from across Scotland. A number of the photo's were taken by friends.
I've edited the music to extend the length of the video. I hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment as it was difficult blending the tracks together.
Performed by The Pipes & Drums of The Royal Tank Regiment.
Scotland the Brave
Lyrics
Hark when the night is falling
Hear! Hear the pipes are calling,
Loudly and proudly calling,
Down thro' the glen.
There where the hills are sleeping,
Now feel the blood a-leaping,
High as the spirits of the old Highland men.
Towering in gallant fame,
Scotland my mountain hame,
High may your proud standards gloriously wave,
Land of my high endeavour,
Land of the shining river,
Land of my heart for ever,
Scotland the brave.
High in the misty Highlands,
Out by the purple islands,
Brave are the hearts that beat
Beneath Scottish skies.
Wild are the winds to meet you,
Staunch are the friends that greet you,
Kind as the love that shines from fair maiden's eyes.
Towering in gallant fame,
Scotland my mountain hame,
High may your proud standards gloriously wave,
Land of my high endeavour,
Land of the shining river,
Land of my heart for ever,
Scotland the brave.
Far off in sunlit places,
Sad are the Scottish faces,
Yearning to feel the kiss
Of sweet Scottish rain.
Where tropic skies are beaming,
Love sets the heart a-dreaming,
Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.
Towering in gallant fame,
Scotland my mountain hame,
High may your proud standards gloriously wave,
Land of my high endeavour,
Land of the shining river,
Land of my heart for ever,
Scotland the brave.
"You are now in the Highlands." Is that a welcome sign or a warning?
A Welcome to a Warning
Both.
Yes
Aye!

how disrespectful and insulting of KZhead to interrupt this song with an advertisement.
Indeed they should get rid of ads on this
Yeah
Ad Blocker! I haven't watched an ad on You Tube for years. There is also Ad Blocker Ultimate and between the two it knocks out a lot of ads everywhere. You will get a lot of news channels and such bitching and sometimes forcing you to whitelist them to view content.
@@KonichiWawa Exactly! I don't know why more haven't taken advantage, unless it possibly interferes with other-apps---in which case, it can be cancelled for that app. True, it doesn't "get" every ad, but I'd wager it "86's" a full-98% of such...?
@@bruno640 True, but I don't recall having to see any ads of KZhead. I see them on other places sometimes. I sometimes forget what a PITA it was to watch that crap.

I'm a soldier in the french army, every Friday Morning, there is a ceremony and after the national anthem, the colonel makes a troop review with a great scottish song played, Robert Bruce's march. It Always reminds me of our old scottish friends and Brothers. Love from a french soldier to my scottish Brothers!

You know,Mary queen of scotts lived in France by the age of 17 ,So France have good relationship with Scotland.

This is the most underrated and hilarious comment on KZhead honestly

Great one.
Pass the offering plate! Southern Baptist here pal!!
Music of the angels !!!! A welcome to the Highlands, for sure.
I don’t have a drop of Scot blood in me but I must have been a Scot in a previous life because hearing the pipes always touches me deep within my soul. 🏴
Only a small percentage of me is Scottish but I still feel major loyalty to Scotland.
About 40% Scot and I have no idea feom where. The pipes give me the goosebumps.
Me as well. I must have been a Scottish lass in a past life ❤❤
I know what you mean.
Same here
I'm so proud to be Scottish
Proud. English/Irish. ❤️ 💪💪
I’m so glad my dad moved to England and met my mum, I’m so glad to be a Anglo Scot.
I have scot Irish blood
Me too💯 Amen

SCOTLAND THE BRAVE IS BEAUTIFUL ANTHEM,SO UNIQUE FROM CENTRAL AMERICA,LAND OF LAKES AND VOLCANOES,I WISH YOU PEACE¡
I don't know why, but whenever I hear this, tears start rolling down.
I was born in England to an English father and a Scottish mother, long story short he wasn't there but the Scottish were, one of my early memories is this song Scotland The Brave, I loved it 30 years ago and I love it now! Long live Scotland!

I'm about 6-gen-removed Scot. Clan Scott. The pipes call me back home. Must be something in my Y chromosome.
I'm 64, American, and a McCauley from my Mother's side. Still remember the numerous times, that my immigrant Scottish Grandfather took me to the Highland Games!
same from Finland..never same not to be The River of Volga , if You put Your Feet to River...
This song... this specific song on the bagpipes has always made me cry since my papa went back home to Heaven... this one was his favorite... I miss you always Papa and I love you so so much
wait... BACK to heaven?
Every time it's played around you, he's enjoying it, since you're remembering him. ok?
I’m so proud to be a 50/50 Anglo Scot on my dads side, he came from rutherglen Glasgow
Glad to hear it.
I met a Scotsman not long ago. He described himself not as British but as a proud Scotsman. After that, I learned about this music and become interested in Scotland. It's very exciting music. God bless Scotland.
I wish I was Scottish, but I'm part English which means I must abuse every Irishman I meet.
I was born in England but my family come from Scotland I class myself as Scottish allways will more scottish in me than English.

@Blaise 2067 Grow up. We're a 'United Kingdom' for a reason. There's no time for division in the world right now, unity around a general consensus must be our goal.
@Blaise 2067 Imagine thinking you have any say in the future of a country that you clearly don't live in. And the fact that you called the monarch "the English monarch" shows that you have little understanding of the country anyway, since it was the Scottish monarch who inherited the throne of England in 1603, not the other way around. Scotland also has a devolved parliament with their own devolved government and thus has a high degree of autonomy from the rest of the UK's "asinine and effeminate (lmao)" policies.
Scotland is wonderful country...wonderful multi-image...with compliment...!!!!

Goosebumps EVERYTIME I hear the opening notes.
Yeah.
From an ex welsh soldier to all Scotland I love your music
Which one? The Classical Pibroch custom of Scotland. Or the Scottish Country dance music of Jimmy Shand and his band, the White Heather club etc. Or Scottish music like Calvin Harris (Acceptable In The 80s), Aneka (Japanese Boy), Average White Band (Pick Up The Pieces), Annie Lennox of Eurythmics (There Must Be An Angel & Sweet Dreams), Simple Minds (Don't You Forget About Me) etc etc etc. There's a lot of different types of Scottish music.
R.I.P Sean Connery (1930-2020).

I love the sound of pipes and drums❤️ From the Philippines 🇵🇭❤️🏴
same
from ph too
Yas I'm from Scotland thank you yes something about the snare drum along with the pipes sends shivers down my spine thanks again
So do I. If you're wild and brave in the Philippines, you're a little bit Scottish at heart.
You guys a little bit use these drums on your bands😅 actually it's like a brass band
I am Irish but love the Scots bagpipes.
Very brave and proud people. My Respect to the Scots.
I'm German, Irish, Scottish, and Norwegian proud of my my Root's
The most Scottish Scotsong to ever Scot.
I long for Scotland! Never been there, but that's were my people came from. Love this music!
I feel the same way, I'm more Irish than Scot but this is my true homeland!
Best of best,respect for Scotish people. From Croatia,love for homeland
Hello from France. Scottish music is magnificent. Long live Scotland.
I'm an Australian but proud of my Scottish heritage. In the past I've been to very few highland gatherings where clans from McLeod, McDonald, Buchanan etc all united to play Scotland the brave with bagpipes and drums down the main streets of the towns where the gathering was held
So exciting How is Australia
It's quite cold in the Southern states due to morning frosts and the mountains have some snow
@@robbiewales3007 what I know Australia in Summer very nice. Just some raining. I love. Beautiful nature
I love the sound of bagpipes . Especially Scotland The Brave. The music and lyrics say it all about Scotland, it's history and the people. Flowers of the forest is another Scottish Ballad with a lot of history behind it.
SAME
I do this for Woody.EXE’s arrival and I adore his wave back at the crowd. He’s probably the best monarch of Wales
I come from the clan Henderson, but I ❤ anyone’s love for Scotland!
There's Scottish on my father's side of the family ..we are from Newfoundland Canada ..I absolutely love them bag pipes ..one of my favorite tunes ..scotland the brave ..makes one feel very proud when it's being played ...makes my Scottish roots stand up and take notice ...
0:45 I can almost hear the soldiers marching to certain death for their country and it makes me so proud of the Scotts bravery I'm an American who absolutely loves Scottish history
I think its easy for us Americans to resonate with Scotland. Both are breakaways from the European Aristocracy, and founded in free values.
Visiting Scotland a few times now , it does feel a kind of homecoming every time when i'm crossing the border. Though i'm not scottish, there has to be a connection, being there in a former life. The greatness of the landscape, the pride, the kindness of the Scots, i do feel a safe haven everywhere i go in Scottland. It will never disappoint me !!
we sang this song in 5th grade. it was for many national anthems around the world. I feel pretty special that this is apart of my childhood, and grateful to the many scots who have shaped thier own world and thusly, the whole world. :)
Scotland FOREVER!

Goosebump inspiring music. My about 3/4 Scot ancestry has a very visceral & spiritual response to this magnificence.....
I really love this music and respect this people I repeat it many times and everytime I have goosebumps Big like from Algeria 🇩🇿
There must be such a thing as DNA memory and such. Some times I won't hear this music for years and then , all of a sudden, I see this and I feel like I'm living again.
Enjoy man .SAOR ALBA GU BRATH
there is such thing as genetic memory. The cabal doesn't want you to know, they want you in fear. They can never stop the fact that Jesus Christ walked the Earth, and still does even today.

Well I don't know about DNA memory, but science has proven that music has an interaction with our mind's memories unlike any other media. It can help unlock very distant memories. And I personally believe this is the reason music is most often the thing that makes us nostalgic.
Imagine beeing a marath soldier in 1803, waiting on the hill of Assaye, your artillery is fireing. The brits are somewhere behind the hill. Suddenly, you can hear some strange music. Shrill, loud, and scarring. Beautiful. Then, through the powdersmoke, you can see them. The royal scottish higlanders. Giants. Fixed bayonets, diciplined, and angry. You fire your musket. Nothing happens. Then, the highlanders stop. You can hear their officers, but you dont understand them. The scots present, they aim. They fire. Theyr volley hits your troop. A giant cloud of powdersmoke is now between you and the scots. U are fine, but a lot of men left and right of you are dead or wounded. The wounded are screaming, blood seeps away in the ground. Then u can hear a terrifying scream. The scream of hundereds of men, of angry scots men. You can see them running towards you. You can see these scottish warriors, big and strong, not having any fear. It was at this that moment you knew, you fucked up.
Och aye found you'll go
Wot this is is true

Dude same exact thing
Literally just got my set of bagpipes not an hour ago, they're not to expensive, highly recommended
BRAVEHEART IS NOT HISTORICALLY ACCURATE
No such thing as “ancestors” you’re American or you’re not
I'm from the USA and am of Scotch-Irish and German descent. When I hear the bagpipes it brings a tear to my eye and I wish I were there in the high grounds.

I'm Norwegian and Scottish, Probably a little bit of Norse gael
when the Britons took over Jordan they sent the Scottish there this cultural collision created such wonderful impact we took some of their dishes pipe instrument and even this music is among many of its kind as national music until this day they used to make " shemaq " which is a traditional head gear then sells them for the army and people the factory still makes those head gears and sells them around the Arabic world in Scotland until this day it was called the " Britain shemaq " it is true that impact on culture doesn't care about our differences .
