When I leave this world behind me
To another I will go
If there are no pipes in heaven
I'll be going down below
If friends in time be severed
Someday we will meet again
I'll return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end
This has been a day to die for
Now the day has almost gone
Up above a choir of seabirds
Turns to face the setting sun
Now the evening dawn is calling
And all the hills are burning red
And before the night comes falling
Clouds are lined with golden thread
We watched the fires together
Shared our quarters for a while
Walked the dusty roads together
Came so many miles
This has been a day to die on
Now the day is almost done
Here the pipes will lay beside me
Silent will the battle drum
If friends in time be severed
Someday here we will meet again
I return to leave you never
Be a piper to the end

Mark Knopfler wrote this song as a tribute to his uncle, Freddie Laidler who was his mother’s brother. Freddie Laidler was a piper with the Tyneside division of the Blackwatch Regiment. He died I action in the north of France in 1940. He was just 20 years old.

O he was very young at 20. Such a beautiful tribute to his uncle. I love this song

The heartlessness of the War Office, who sent a 19 year old to War armed with just his bagpipes, is what sticks in the throat.

Such a moving and sad song, and so well written and performed. It tears in my heart everytime I listen to it... Someone said once, this should have been Scotland's national anthem..

Je suis originaire de la région où l'oncle de Mark Knopfler a combattu. Je découvre la raison de cette chanson, même si je suis un fan de Mark depuis 1979. J'ai toute sa discographie, enfin tout ce qui a été commercialisé. J'aurai l'occasion d'aller à Ficheux, essayer de trouver son oncle Freddie Laidler s'il est là-bas. Je connais très bien le lieu d'où sont extraites la vidéo du clip. Je tiens à remercier tous ces combattants qui sont venus pour notre liberté, même si nous la perdons actuellement. Il y a beaucoup de cimetières militaires dans ma region, il y en a un à 30 mètres de chez moi, j'y vais aussi souvent que j'en ressens le besoin.Merci à tous ces héros ❤

THIS MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG HAS A VERY SPECIAL AND DEEP MEANING IN MY HEART. I AM NOT A PIPER, BUT I HAVE COME TO LOVE THE PIPES THROUGH A VERY SPECIAL MARINE IN MY LIFE THAT IS A PIPER AND WILL BE TO THE END. MY MARINE FELL IN LOVE WITH SCOTLAND THE VERY SECOND HE PLACED HIS FEET ON ITS SOIL AS A MARINE. HE AUTHORED AND PUBLISHED A MOST UNIQUE AND BRILLIANTLY WRITTEN BOOK ABOUT SCOTLAND. WE BOTH HAVE ANCESTORS FROM SCOTLAND. I KNOW THAT THIS SONG WILL BE PLAYED WHENEVER TIM'S TIME ON THIS EARTH IS DONE. BUT HE STILL HAS A LOT OF LIFE TO LIVE AND MANY MORE TRIPS TO SCOTLAND FROM THE STATES...SO, KEEP PIPING, TIM, AND LOVING TO PLAY AT THE GIGS YOU PLAY AT. YOU ARE TRULY A PIPER TO THE END. YOUR BONNIE HEILAND LASSIE, ALWAYS~~

যখন আমি এই পৃথিবী ছেড়ে চলে যাব........ Lyrics: When I leave this world behind me To another, I will go And if there are no pipes in heaven I'll be going down below If friends in time be severed Someday we will meet again I'll return to leave you never Be a piper to the end This has been a day to die for Now the day is almost done Up above, a quiet seabird Turns to face the setting sun Now the evening dove is calling And all the hills are burning red And before the night comes falling Clouds are lined with golden thread We watched the fires together Shared our quarters for a while Walked the dusty roads together Came so many miles This has been a day to die on Now the day is almost done Here the pipes will lay beside me Silent with the battle drum If friends in time be severed Someday here we will meet again I'll return to leave you never Be a piper to the end যখন আমি আমার পিছনে এই পৃথিবী ছেড়ে চলে যাব অন্যের কাছে যাবো আর যদি স্বর্গে পাইপ না থাকে আমি নিচে যেতে হবে সময় হলে বন্ধু ছিন্ন হয়ে যায় একদিন আবার দেখা হবে আমি ফিরে আসবো তোমায় ছেড়ে কখনোই শেষ পর্যন্ত একটি পাইপার হতে এই জন্য মরার দিন হয়েছে এখন দিন প্রায় শেষ উপরে, একটি শান্ত সামুদ্রিক পাখি অস্তগামী সূর্যের দিকে মুখ করে এখন সন্ধ্যার ঘুঘু ডাকছে আর সব পাহাড় লাল হয়ে জ্বলছে আর রাত নামার আগেই মেঘ সোনালী সুতোয় সারিবদ্ধ আমরা একসঙ্গে আগুন দেখেছি কিছু সময়ের জন্য আমাদের কোয়ার্টার ভাগ ধুলোময় রাস্তায় একসাথে হেঁটেছি এত মাইল এসেছে এই একটি দিন হয়েছে মৃত্যু এখন দিন প্রায় শেষ এখানে পাইপ আমার পাশে বিছানো হবে যুদ্ধের ড্রাম নিয়ে নীরব সময় হলে বন্ধু ছিন্ন হয়ে যায় একদিন এখানে আবার দেখা হবে আমি ফিরে আসবো তোমায় ছেড়ে কখনোই শেষ পর্যন্ত একটি পাইপার হতে

I like the little insect at 1:03 passing at the bottom right, what a nice detail! The shots are breathtaking again! You've outdone yourself on this one! Colouring, switches between the shots, and lyrics in description! So awesome!
