Dark Island |
Away to the westward |
I’m longing to be, |
Where the beauties of heaven |
Unfold by the sea; |
Where the sweet purple heather blooms |
Fragrant and free |
On a hilltop high above |
The Dark Island |
So gentle the sea breeze, |
That ripples the bay, |
Where the stream joins the ocean, |
And young children play; |
On the strand of pure silver, |
I’ll welcome each day, |
And I’ll roam for every more, |
The Dark Island |
True gem of the Herbrides, |
Bathed in the light, |
Of the mid-summer dawning, |
That follows the night; |
How I yearn for the cries, |
Of the seagulls in flight, |
As they circle above |
The Dark Island |
