Ye Jacobites by Name [French translation]

(Refrain)

Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear, lend an ear

Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear

Ye Jacobites by name, your faults I will proclaim

Your doctrines I maun blame

You will hear, you will hear!

Your doctrines I maun blaim

You will hear!

What is right and what is wrong, by the law, by the law

What is right and what is wrong, by the law

What is right and what is wrong, a short sword or a long

A weak arm and a strong, for to draw, for to draw

A weak arm and a strong, for to draw

(Refrain)

What makes heroic strife, famed afar, famed afar

What makes heroic strife, famed afar

What makes heroic strife, to whet the assassin's knife

Or hunt a parent's life, with bloody war, bloody war

Or hunt a parent's life, with bloody war

(Refrain)

So let your schemes alone, in the state, in the state

So let your schemes alone, in the state

So let your schemes alone, adore the rising sun

And leave a man undone, to his fate, to his fate

And leave a man undone, to his fate

(Refrain)
