I'm searching for the song "Scotland the brave".
But I want to find a version of bagpipes together with someone who sings the song.
I've already found instrumental bagpipe songs without singing. I also found singing but with other instruments.
So i want to find bagpipes with singers (modern if possible).
Can someone help me? Many thanks
Or mayby you know a group who sang the song together with bagpipes?
PS Sorry when I make mistakes in my sentences, english is not my mother language.

I've never heard the words before.
Correction--I've heard a drunk Scotman's dirty version of the words, but it was still incoherent.

There are indeed words but the don't fit the version played on the pipes too well.
I only know the dirty version though...
Here's the clean version:
Hark when the night is fallin Hear! Hear the pipes are calling, Loudly and proudly calling, Down thro' the glen. There where the hills are sleeping, Now feel the blood a-leaping, High as the spirits of the old Highland men.
Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.
High in the misty Highlands, Out by the purple islands, Brave are the hearts that beat Beneath Scottish skies. Wild are the winds to meet you, Staunch are the friends that greet you, Kind as the love that shines from fair maidens' eyes.
Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.
Far off in sunlit places, Sad are the Scottish faces, Yearning to feel the kiss Of sweet Scottish rain. Where tropic skies are beaming, Love sets the heart a-dreaming, Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.
Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.

The words fit the tune reasonably well. If you have both versions I expect you can deduce what goes where. You get one verse and one chorus on each once through the tune.
