Eagle's Wing (feat. Karen Matheson, Donald Shaw, Rachel Walker & the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo Pipes and Drums)

I have travelled far this globe of beauty Through time and tide of centuries And still the world I roam But I always feel the pull of Caledonia And the eagle's wing will always guide me home I'm a soldier old I gave my youth for others I'm a sailor on the cruel wave and brave the raging foam I'm a nurse upon the bloody fields of Flanders I am all the flowers of Scotland guide me home Guide me home on the golden eagle's wing And I will sing as high above we soar Guide me home where the golden eagles fly And I will die with Caledonian soul From the Carolinas I can see the Cuillins I healed the world from London but for fields of Aryshire dream From a Pittsburgh steel mill I still feel Dunfermline From the Belfast cranes I long for Pittenweem On the world stage I crave the streets of Glasgow A humble star of ancient game but Oban's in my bones I'm a dying bard on far Pacific island May the glow of Skerryvore now guide me home Guide me home on the golden eagle's wing And I will sing as high above we soar Guide me home where the golden eagles fly And I will die with Caledonian soul I'm the sons and daughters of all Caledonia Of generations long gone by and a thousand still to go I am all who left and all who stayed forever And all who came and made our land their own We'll see the rolling farmland of the borders The castle stands in silhouette on Edinburgh sky The mighty Clyde the rugged island mountains Highland streams of moving dreams gone by Above our mortal burdens feel the freedom High we soar with golden hope for all we see below May forgiveness faith and love grace all horizons The tide will turn to guide our journey home Guide me home on the golden eagle's wing And I will sing as high above we soar Guide me home where the golden eagles fly And I will die with Caledonian soul Guide me home on the golden eagle's wing And I will sing as high above we soar Guide me home where the golden eagles fly And I will die with Caledonian soul
