"A Scottish Soldier" is a song written by Andy Stewart using the tune of "The Green Hills of Tyrol", which was transcribed by John MacLeod during the Crimean War from "La Tua Danza Sì Leggiera", a chorus part in the third act of Gioachino Rossini's 1829 opera Guglielmo Tell (William Tell). The song is about a dying Scottish soldier, wishing to return to the hills of his homeland rather than die in the Tyrol. The song was one of two US chart entries by Andy Stewart. "A Scottish Soldier" reached no. 1 in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. It spent 36 weeks in the UK Singles Chart in 1961.

  • A Scottish Soldier" είναι σκωτσέζικο δημοτικό τραγούδι σε στίχους του Άντυ Στιούαρτ. Η μελωδία του έγινε ανεπίσημος εθνικός ύμος της Σκωτίας. Το ποίημα είναι απλό. Ένας Σκωτσέζος που πολεμάει για την πατρίδα του τραυματίζεται στο πεδίο της μάχης και υποκύπτει ηρωικά των τραυμάτων του. Όμως η μοιραία αυτή μάχη τον βρισκει να πολεμάει στο Τιρόλο, μακρυά από την γενέτειρα του. Η τελευταία του πνοή συνοδεύεται από τον πόθο, να επιστρέψει και να ξαναδεί τους καταπράσινους λόφους της πατρίδας του. (el)
