Mingulay Boatsong

Hill yo ho boys, let her go boys,
Bring her head round, now all together.
Hill yo ho boys, let her go boys,
Sailing home, home to Mingulay.

What care we tho’white the Minch is,
What care we for the wind or weather.
Let her go boys, every inch is,
Wearing home, home to Mingulay.

Refrein

Delphins springing, children singing,
sun is glistening on the water.
Haul her round boys, and we’ll soon be, 
once again on Mingulay.

Refrein

Wives are waiting by the harbour,
Wives been waiting 
since break o ‘day-o
Wives been waiting by the harbour,
Till the sun sets on Mingula
