[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,
Thunderclaps 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

(BAGPIPE SOLO)

Many's the lad fought on that day.
Well the claymore did wield,
When the night came, silently lay
dead on Culloden’s field.

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.
