The Skye Boat Song |
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing |
Onward the sailors cry. |
Carry the lad that’s born to be king |
Over the sea to Skye |
Loud the wind howls |
loud the waves roar |
Thunderclaps rend the air |
Baffled our foes |
stand by the shore |
Follow they will not dare |
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing |
Onward the sailors cry. |
Carry the lad that’s born to be king |
Over the sea to Skye |
Many’s the lad fought on that day |
Well the claymore did wield |
When the night came |
silently lain |
Dead on Colloden field |
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing |
Onward the sailors cry. |
Carry the lad that’s born to be king |
Over the sea to Skye |
Though the waves heave |
soft will ye sleep |
Ocean’s a royal bed |
Rocked in the deep |
Flora will keep |
Watch by your weary head |
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing |
Onward the sailors cry. |
Carry the lad that’s born to be king |
Over the sea to Skye |
