the whole of joshua tree by u2

ye banks and braes-dougie maclean/robert burns

(my god,what would i do without all those celts?
i can die-but canna part[burns])

Ye Banks and Braes o' Bonnie Doon
(robert burns)

Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon,
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And I'm sae weary, fu' o' care!
Ye'll break my heart, ye warbling bird,
That wantons through the flow'ring thorn,
Ye mind me o' departed joys,
Departed never to return.
Oft ha'e I roved by bonnie Doon,
To see the rose and woodbine twine;
And ilka bird sang o' its luve,
And fondly sae did I o' mine.
Wi' lightsome heart I stretch'd my hand,
And pu'd a rosebud from the tree;
But my fause lover stole the rose,
And left, and left the thorn wi' me.

Excellent choice of music. My personal favorites are Joshua tree and the braveheart soundtrack.
