National Anthem of Scotland (unofficial): Flower of Scotland

"Flower of Scotland" is a Scottish song, frequently performed at special occasions and sporting events as an unofficial national anthem of Scotland.

The song was composed in the mid-1960s by Roy Williamson of the folk group the Corries. It was first heard publicly in a 1967 BBC television series. The words refer to the victory of the Scots, led by Robert the Bruce, over Edward II of England at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Although there is no official national anthem of Scotland, "Flower of Scotland" is one of a number of songs which are used, along with the older "Scotland the Brave".

The song was composed and is sung in English, typically with Scots pronunciation of a few words.

Scotland's national flower is the thistle. A flower so spiked it makes a cactus look friendly.
Scots: "The only flowar I Ieik is a flowar that can pierce an Inglishman's throat."
