Lay me doon in the caul caul groon
Whaur afore monie mair huv gaun
Lay me doon in the caul caul groon
Whaur afore monie mair huv gaun
When they come a wull staun ma groon
Staun ma groon al nae be afraid
Thoughts awe hame tak awa ma fear
Sweat an bluid hide ma veil awe tears
Ains a year say a prayer faur me
Close yir een an remember me
Nair mair shall a see the sun
For a fell tae a Germans gun
Lay me doon in the caul caul groon
Whaur afore monie mair huv gaun

September 11th... Least we forget.
Good morning, all. A friend sang this last night and the garden restaurant where we play Tuesday evenings was silent for several minutes afterwards... Beautiful. I'll raise a glass of unbranded Keemun tea to the men and women who worked so selflessly in the hours and minutes afterward to rescue those who could be saved.
