Skye Boat Song |

(Chorus) 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 |
Many's the lad fought on that day Well the claymore did wield When the night came, silently lain Dead on Culloden field |
