The fear a fallen down taken never back the raize.
And then Craig Marion, get out wi' ye Claymore out 
mi pocket a' ran doon, doon the middin stain
picking the fiery horde that was fallen around ma feet.

"Never" he cried, "never shall it ye get me alive
ye rotten hound of the burnie crew." 

Well I snatched fer the blade O my Claymore,
cut and thrust and I fell doon before him round his feet.

Aye! A roar he cried frae the bottom of his heart that 
I would nay fall but as dead, dead as 'a can be by his feet; 
de ya ken?
