smile farewell, and then from far awa<br \/>\nHe waved to me the tartan of the gallant Forty-Twa<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<br \/>\nI stood there on the dockside, as his ship pulled out to sea<br \/>\nAnd prayed that my own bonnie lad would soon return to me<br \/>\nBut many a pipe will sound no more and many a lad will fall<br \/>\nWhen fighting for the tartan of the gallant Forty-Twa<br \/>\nChorus<br \/>\nOnce again I hear the music of the pibroch from a far<br \/>\nThey tramped and tramped the weary men returning from the war<br \/>\nAnd as they nearer drew I brushed a woeful tear awa<br \/>\nTo see my bonnie laddie of the gallant Forty-Twa<\/p>\n<p>Chorus<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may talk about your lancers and your Irish Fusiliers The Aberdeen Militia and the
