Speed, bonnie boatlike a bird on the wingOnward! the sailors cryCarry the lad that\'s born to be King Over the sea to Skye.Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roarThunderclouds rend the airBaffled our foes stand by the shoreFollow they will not dareSpeed bonnie boat like a bird on the wingOnward! the sailors cryCarry the lad that\'s born to be KingOver the sea to Skye.Though the waves leap soft shall ye sleepOcean\'s a royal bedRocked in the deep Flora will keepWatch by your weary headSpeed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wingOnward! the sailors cryCarry the lad that\'s born to be KingOver the sea to SkyeMany\'s the lad fought on that dayWell the claymore could wieldWhen the night came silently layDead in Culloden\'s fieldSpeed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wingOnward! the sailors cryCarry the lad that\'s born to be KingOver the sea to Skye.Burned are their homes exile and deathScatter the loyal menYet e\'er the sword cool in the sheathCharlie will come again.Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wingOnward! the sailors cryCarry the lad that\'s born to be KingOver the sea to Skye.
