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 |
