Teribus ye teri odin

Teribus ye teri odin or teribus an teriodin () is popularly believed to have been the war cry of the men of Hawick at the Battle of Flodden,〔(The Antiquary, Vol. IX. January-June 1884 p.62ff )〕 and still preserved in the traditions of the town.〔( A Hawick Wordbook - Douglas Scott )〕 The full chorus of the Border ballad ''Teribus ye teri odin'' is often sung at festive gatherings, not only in the gallant old border town itself, but in the remotest districts of Canada, the United States and Australia, wherever Hawick men ("Teris"), and natives of the Scottish Border congregated to keep up the remembrance of their native land, and haunts of their boyhood.〔(MacKay, Charles (1888) ''A Dictionary of Lowland Scotch'' p.232 )〕
:"''Teribus ye teri odin''
:Sons of heroes slain at Flodden
:Imitating Border bowmen
:Aye defend your rights and common"
The full version of the Border ballad written by James Hogg in 1819 (not James Hogg, "The Ettrick Shepherd", with the same name),〔(Teribus )〕 which replaced an earlier one by Arthur Balbirnie used a generation earlier,〔(A sketch of the history of Hawick, Hawick 1825 p.343 )〕〔(Transactions of the Hawick Archaeological Society 1863 p.35 )〕 is still sung at the Hawick Common Riding in June of every year.
Attempts have been made to connect the phrase ''teribus an teriodin'' with the names of the Scandinavian and Norse gods, Thor and Odin from the Old English ''Týr hæbbe us, e Týr e Oðinn'' "May (god ) Tyr keep us, both Tyr and Odin", an unlikely explanation since the gods' names are given in their Old Norse forms, not the Old English ''Tiw'' and ''Wodan'' and the normal phonological development would not result in the modern pronunciation, apart from that, the survival of a supposed Old English sentence in its near original form for more than 700 years is barely conceivable.〔
Charles Mackay described the ballad, of which these mysterious words form the burden, is one of patriotic "defence and defiance" against foreign invaders and suggested that the phrase is a corruption, or phonetic rendering, of the Scottish Gaelic "''Tìr a buaidh, 's tìr a dìon''" meaning "Land of victory and land of defence".〔(MacKay, Charles (1888) ''A Dictionary of Lowland Scotch'' pp.232-233 )〕
The linguist Anatoly Liberman states, however, that Mackay's goal was to discover the Gaelic origin of all words〔Anatoly Liberman (2008), An analytic dictionary of English etymology: an introduction,University of Minnesota Press, p. 194〕 and that he thought that most English words are traceable to Gaelic,〔Anatoly Liberman (2009), 'THE ETYMOLOGY OF 'BRAIN' AND COGNATES', Nordic Journal of English Studies, p. 46〕 which is certainly not true. Liberman also described MacKay's 1877 dictionary as "full of the most fanciful conjectures", noting that MacKay "was hauled over the coals by his contemporaries and never taken seriously".
It has also been suggested that the phrase is a series of vocables imitating the sound of a march played on drums and bagpipes.〔(SND:Teribus )〕
Alistair Moffat suggests in ''Arthur and the Lost Kingdoms'' (1999) that the phrase was originally the Welsh "Tir y Bas y Tir y Odin," meaning "The Land of Death, the Land of Odin", although Odin wasn't noted for his popularity amongst the Welsh. However, he also postulates that the phrase could mean "Land of Death, Land of the Gododdin" (The initial G is often elided), the Gododdin being the local Britonnic tribe of the area.
References to the "war cry" ''teribus an teriodin'' do not appear much before the early 19th century.〔
