Lyrics

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 foes stand by the shore, 
Follow they will not dare.

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.

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.

Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on a wing,
"Onward!" the sailors cry.
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye.

Over the sea, over the sea, over the sea,
Over the sea to Skye.

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.
Over the sea to Skye.
