Quality song, and I think the black and white photies are brilliant.Marching down Killiekrankie High Street,SUPERB!

[@johnmaclaurin3611]

Reminds me of a very young child;
the dog sleeping by a log fire, snow falling gently by the window, mother in cooking, my father with a dram.

Hush, hush, time tae be sleepin'
Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
Dreams of peace and of freedom
So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
Once, our valleys were ringin'
with sounds of our children singin'
but now, sheep bleat in the evenin'
and shielings stand empty and broken
Hush, hush, time tae be sleepin'.
Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
Dreams of peace and of freedom
So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
We stood with heads bowed in prayer
while Factors burn our cottages bare
The flames licked the clear mountain air
and many were dead by the mornin'
Where was our fierce Highland mettle
Our men, once sae feared in battle
now stand, cowed, huddled like cattle
and wait tae be shipped o'er the ocean
Hush, hush, time tae be sleepin'
Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
Dreams of peace and of freedom
So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
Nae use greetin' or prayin' now
Gone. Gone, all hopes of stayin'
sae hush, now. The anchor's a-weighin'
Don't cry in your sleep, bonny baby
Hush, hush, time tae be sleepin'
Hush, hush, dreams come a-creepin'
Dreams of peace and of freedom
So smile in your sleep, bonny baby
