Dougie MacLean — Leis A Lurighan lyrics

Lyrics

On the ocean o’he
Waves in motion o’ho
Not but clouds could we see
O’er the blue sea below
Islay looming o’he
In the gloaming o’ho
Our ship’s compass set we And our lights we did show
Leis a lurighan o’he
Leis a lurighan oh’o
In the grey dark of evening
O’er the waves let us go Aros passing o’he
Was harassing o’ho
The proud billows 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
Leis a lurighan o’he
Leis a lurighan oh’o
In the grey dark of evening
O’er the waves let us go 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 stand with me Let them go down below
Leis a lurighan o’he
Leis a lurighan oh’o
In the grey dark of evening
O’er the waves let us go
