Some of it is used as the theme song for the television show Outlander,
which is set mostly in Scotland in 1745. They changed the "he" to "she" and
"lad" to "lass" because the main character is a nurse from WWII who
stumbled into the wrong set of standing stones near Inverness and found
herself in old Scotland. It's a long and sometimes silly soap opera, but
the Scots love it because of its affect on tourism.

The poem itself is about Bonny Prince Charlie's escape after Culloden.
