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 wind howls Loud the waves roar Thunder will rend the air Baffled our foes Stand by the shore Follow they will not dare.

Carry the lad that's born to be king Over the sea to Skye
