    Skye Boat Song

     

    Refrain:   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 winds howl, loud the waves roar,

    Thunderclouds rend the air;

    Baffled, our foes stand by the shore,

    Follow they will not dare.
     

    Refrain


    Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep,
    Ocean's a royal bed.
    Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep
    Watch by your weary head.
     

    Refrain
