Dougie MacLean's "Leis A Lurighan"


On the ocean o‘he
Waves in motion o‘ho
Not but clouds could we see
O'er the blue sea below
Islay loomin‘ o‘he
In the gloamin‘ o‘ho
Our ship's compass set we
And our lights we did show
Aros passing o‘he
Was harrassing o‘ho
The proud belows to see
High as masthead to flow
Captain hollers o‘he
To his fellows o‘ho
Those that courage would flee
Let him go down below

In the tempest o‘he
Waves were crashing o‘ho
And the cry of the sea
As the cold winds did blow
Captain hollers o‘he
To his fellows o‘ho
Those that won't stay with me
Let them go down below
