laura wright - skye boat song lyrics
[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
[verse 1]
loud the winds howl
loud the waves roar
thunderclaps rend the air;
baffled, our foes
stand on the shore
follow they will not dare
[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
[verse 2]
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
[chorus]
speed, bonniе boat
like a bird on the wing
“onward!” the sailors cry
carry thе lad
that’s born to be king
over the sea to skye
[verse 3]
many’s the lad
fought on that day
well the claymore could wield
when the night came
silently lay
dead in culloden’s field
[verse 4]
burned are their homes
exile and death
scatter the loyal men
yet ere the sword
cool in the sheath
charlie will come again
[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
over the sea to skye
