Mingulay Boat Song


Il ya ho boys, let her go boys
Heave her head ‘round into the weatherIl ya ho boys, let her go boys
Heading homeward to Mingulay

What care we how wide the Minch is
What care we now for windy weather
For we know that every inch is
Wearin’ homeward to Mingulay

Chorus

Wives are waitin’ at the pierhead
Starin’ seaward from the heather
Heave around boys and we’ll anchor
Ere the sun sets on Mingulay

Chorus

Ian and Bridie at the pier side
Truly loved now are they by me
In a few years now, they’ll be older
Like their fathers they’ll put to sea
