Oh sweet sister Liberty, tell me why do you weep?
When the world around you is silently asleep
Although we haven't spoken in far too many years
When I hear your pained cries, I too shed tears
Your rampant lion cannot relate, I'm too far across the sea
Why are your children dying, just because they are free?
Your blood has been spilled, your tears have turned red
But you still stand tall, no matter how much you have bled
I'll always stand by you, your brother draped in saltire
And defend your freedom, to parody and satire.
I don't pretend to know why, I just can't comprehend
However through this auld alliance, I'm always your friend.
KRS
