The Skye Boat Song - John McDermott

作曲：Traditional

Speed bonnie boat

Like a bird on the wing

Onward the sialors cry

Carry the lad

That is born to be king

Over the sea to skye

Though the waves leap

Soft shall ye sleep

Oceans a royal bed

Rocked in the deep

Flora will keep

Watched by your weary head

Speed bonnie boat

Like a bird on the wing

Onward the sialors cry

Carry the lad

That is born to be king

Over the sea to skye

Manys the lad fought on that day

Well the claymore could weild

When the night came

Silently lay

Dead on cullodens field

Speed bonnie boat

Like a bird on the wing

Onward the sialors cry

Carry the lad

That is born to be king

Over the sea to skye

Burned are our homes

Exile and death

Scatter the loyal men

Yet ere the sword

Cool in the sheath

Charlie will come again

Speed bonnie boat

Like a bird on the wing

Onward the sialors cry

Carry the lad

That is born to be king

Over the sea to skye
