Corries - The Isle Of Skye Lyrics
There are twa bonnie maidens, and three bonnie maidensCome owre the Minch, come owre the mainWith the wind for their way and the corry for theirHameThey are dearly welcome back to Skye once againCome along, come along wi' your boatie and your songMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsFor the night it is dark, the Redcoat is goneAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once againThere is Flora, my honey, sae dear, sae bonnieAnd ane, that's sae tall, sae handsome and allPut the one for my king and the other for my queenThey are dearly welcome back to Skye once againCome along, come along wi' your boatie and your songMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsFor the Lady Macoulain, she dwelleth all her laneAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once againHer arm it is long and her petticoat is strongMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsThe sea moullit's nest I will watch o'er the mainAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once againCome along, come along wi' your boatie and your songMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsAnd saft shall ye rest where the heather grows bestAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once againThere's a wind in the tree, a ship on the seaMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsYour cradle I'll rock on the lea of the rockAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once againCome along, come along wi' your boatie and your songMy ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maidsMair sound shall ye sleep as she sail o'er the deepAnd ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again
