Skye boat song
IAN CLARKE, JOHN PAINTER SIMON
Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward! The sailors cry
Carry the the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye
Loud the winds howl, lous the waves roar
Thunderclouds 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 the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye
Though the waves leap, soft shall ya sleep
Oceans 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 the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye
