Scottish pipes march off to war
Hear them soar above the roar
Irish pipes do no such thing
Uillean pipes will make you sing
Chanter dancing on the knee
Setting soul & spirit free
High the octave cry will ring
Uillian pipes will make you sing
Chorus:
Uillean pipes will make you sing
High they fly on eagle’s wing
From their throats their notes they fling
Uillean pipes will make you sing
Mountain mist when kissed by time
Forms a tryst with song & rhyme
Brigid goddess of the spring
Brings the pipes that make us sing
Elbow sound unchained unbound
Twisting, turning from the ground
Drones are singing bowls that ring
Uillean pipes will make you sing
Chorus:
Wind & rain & earth & fire
Wild refrain of natures choir
Round and round the seasons bring
Reasons for the pipes to sing
Ireland green and Ireland free
Lore & legend, mystery
Hail the pipes that would be king
Uillean pipes will make you sing
Chorus:
