Both Sides The Tweed:
What's the spring breathing jasmine and rose?
What's the summer with all its gay trains?

Or the splendor of autumn to those
Who've bartered their freedom for gain?


Chorus:
Let the love of our land's sacred right
To the love of our people succeed

Let friendship and honor unite
And flourish on both sides the Tweed


No sweetness the senses can achieve
Which corruption and bribery bind
No brightness that gloom can e'er gleam

For honor's the sum of the mind

(Chorus)


Let virtue distinguish the brave
Place riches in lowest degree

Think them poorest who can be a slave
Them richest who dare to be free


(Chorus)

Let friendship and honor unite

And flourish on both sides the Tweed
