Highland Dance

Lyrics

Slainte mhath, praising Ras Tafari JAH

Beannacht leat, 

sending a blessing unto each and everyone

 

Steppin steppin out

steppin out this is a pictish step 

Fyah iya build it up again

Steppin steppin out

we a trekking ina the hill and glens

this is a highland dance

  

Pictish Miltia man we deya pon the mission

battle the dragon and the lizard

man a shaman and a wizard

hit them like a blizzard

do it for the mountain and the river

for the children of the future

better remember you roots and yuh culture

Dash dem ina cauldron

we a fling them ina pit

Drum them with the bodran

Cant come inna the land of the PICTS

Me a stand like a stone

pon the Hills where we live

Learn the gaelic language as an act to resist

Gather the Clans inna the dance

Dub it inna the ceilidh

Make we jump and pas de basque

Away with the faeries

Inna di jig I singing slainte mhath

still im waving my shellelagh

praising Ras Tafari JAH

 

We dont wait no more

Open up the doors and getting closer to source, so…

JAH shall keep us safe and sound

children ina the wilderness deh pon the way home

 

Steppin steppin out

steppin out this is a pictish step 

Fyah iya build it up again

Steppin steppin out

we a trekking ina the hill and glens

this is a highland dance

 

Linking like celtic knot

intertwined inna my life with the meskel cross

connect the dots

culture bubble ina melting pot

tartan tarzan with the natty dreadlocks

Jamrock unto the land of the Scots

Steadfast when we step it pon the path

I got to tek another chance 

Have faith in the fada plan

Lugh Lamhfada woulda mash up babylon

Call pon the Cailleach iyah chant it ina mi song

Cmon, Lick dung the wicked wan like winter storm

Spring back into life, inna the time of Brigid come

Pictish Clan!  I ancestor send a strength to carry on

Mi gone, back to the bothy hiddin in the Cairngorms

 

We dont wait no more

Open up the doors and getting closer to source, so…

JAH shall keep us safe and sound

children ina the wilderness deh pon the way home

 

Steppin steppin out

steppin out this is a pictish step 

Fyah iya build it up again

Steppin steppin out

we a trekking ina the hill and glens

this is a highland dance
