Speed bonnie boat, | |
like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air; | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep | |
Oceans a royal bed | |
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep | |
Watch by your weary head | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air; | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye |
Speed bonnie boat, | |
like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep | |
Oceans a royal bed | |
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep | |
Watch by your weary head | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye |
Speed bonnie boat, | |
like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep | |
Oceans a royal bed | |
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep | |
Watch by your weary head | |
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, | |
Thunder clouds rend the air | |
Baffled our foes stand on the shore | |
Follow they will not dare | |
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, | |
Onward, the sailors cry | |
Carry the lad thats born to be king | |
Over the sea to Skye |
