Roch the win i the clear day's dawin Blaws the clouds heilster-gowdie owre the bay But thair's mair nor a roch win blawin Thro the Great Glen o the warl the day It's a thocht that wad gar our rottans Aa thae rogues that gang gallus fresh an gay Tak the road an seek ither loanins Wi thair ill-ploys tae sport an play Nae mair will our bonnie callants Merch tae war whan our braggarts crousely craw Nor wee weans frae pitheid an clachan Murn the ships sailin doun the Broomielaw Broken faimilies in launs we've hairriet Will curse 'Scotlan the Brave' nae mair, nae mair Black an white ane-til-ither mairriet Mak the vile barracks o thair maisters bare Sae come aa ye at hame wi freedom Never heed whit the houdies croak for Doom In yer hous aa the bairns o Aidam Will fin breid, barley-bree an paintit room Whan MacLean meets wi's friens in Springburn Aa thae roses an geeans will turn tae blume An a black laud frae yont Nyanga Dings the fell gallows o the burghers doun. Translation It's a rough wind in the clear day's dawning Blows the clouds head-over-heels across the bay But there's more than a rough wind blowing Through the Great Glen of the world today It's a thought that would make our rodents, All those rogues who strut and swagger, Take the road and seek other pastures To carry out their wicked schemes No more will our fine young men March to war at the behest of jingoists and imperialists Nor will young children from mining communities and rural hamlets Mourn the ships sailing off down the River Clyde Broken families in lands we've helped to oppress will never again have reason to curse the sound of advancing Scots Black and white, united in friendship and marriage, Will result in the military garrisons being adandoned and empty So come all you who love freedom Pay no attention to the prophets of doom In your house all the children of Adam Will be welcomed with food, drink and hospitality When the spirit of John MacLean returns to his people All the flowers will blossom And black Africa will bring crashing down All Imperialism's dreadful apparatus of oppression.

1st July 2006 is the 90th anniversary of the start of the Battle of the Somme, a horrific battle during world war one - 1914-1918. This is a photo and music memorial to that event.

A film depicting the Somme battle cut and edited by myself compiled from film from the Imperial War Museum archives. The infantry at the beginning are soldiers of the 1st Battalion, The Lancashire Fusiliers. Having fixed bayonets they move into position prior to the attack on Beaumont-Hamel 1 July. The men resting in the lane are two companies and a Stokes Mortar team from 1st Battalion, the Lancashire Fusiliers forming up for the assault in a sunken lane opposite Hawthorn Ridge. Twenty minutes after this film was shot they attacked under heavy machine gun fire and only 50 of them reached the low bank beyond the lane. Thanks. Please leave comments

Vote for Somme Theatre in the Heritage Lottery Fund Awards! Web:www.lotterygoodcauses.org.uk/awards/project/63 Phone: 0845 386 8120 The Old Vic Theatre and The Imperial War Museum joined forces to create Somme Theatre to raise awareness of the Battle of the Somme and its one million casualties, and educate people about the events of the First World War. This project bought together over 100 volunteers aged 13-70 years of age from secondary schools and community groups, who took part in three special heritage-focused workshops and a specially commissioned play performed over five nights. 'Never have I been so proud in my role as Artistic Director of The Old Vic than I was that night of Somme Theatre. Seeing all of those young people and community members working so well together in something of such quality and ambition was truly inspiring.' Kevin Spacey, Artistic Director
