Hawick Callants Club

Founded 1904

 

His heart is warm, his hand is free,

His love's an inspiration

For Border hill and dale, and Hawick

His centre of creation;

And fair or tyrst aye proves the best

To him wi' a bit brawl in't,

He'll  fight the field though heids are peel'd

He wunna yield, the Callant !
