<pre><font size='+2'>THE SKYE BOAT SONG lyrics NANA MOUSKOURI</font><br>Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing, <br />
<br />
Onward, the sailors cry <br />
<br />
Carry the lad that`s born to be king <br />
<br />
Over the sea to skye <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, <br />
<br />
Thunder clouds rend the air; <br />
<br />
Baffled our foe`s stand on the shore <br />
<br />
Follow they will not dare <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep <br />
<br />
Ocean`s a royal bed <br />
<br />
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep <br />
<br />
Watch by your weary head <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Many`s the lad fought on that day <br />
<br />
Well the claymore could wield <br />
<br />
When the night came, silently lay <br />
<br />
Dead on Culloden`s field <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Burned are our homes, exile and death <br />
<br />
Scatter the loyal men <br />
<br />
Yet, e`er the sword cool in the sheath, <br />
<br />
Charlie will come again. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
*note:This song commemorates the escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie from these<br />
<br />
shores when Flora MacDonald took him, disguised as a serving maid,<br />
<br />
from Uist to Skye in a small boat.<br />
<br />
Flora is buried at Kilmuir on the north coast of Skye. Prince Charlie<br />
<br />
near Rome where he was born.<br />
<br />
Words by Sir Harold Boulton, Bart., 1884. Music by Annie <br />

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,

Thunder clouds rend the air;

Baffled our foe`s stand on the shore

Follow they will not dare

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

Many`s the lad fought on that day

Well the claymore could wield

When the night came, silently lay

Dead on Culloden`s field

Burned are our homes, exile and death

Scatter the loyal men

Yet, e`er the sword cool in the sheath,

Charlie will come again.

*note:This song commemorates the escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie from these

shores when Flora MacDonald took him, disguised as a serving maid,

from Uist to Skye in a small boat.

Flora is buried at Kilmuir on the north coast of Skye. Prince Charlie
