Mangily Boat Song

What care we though white the spray is
What care we for the wind and weather
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Heave her head round to the weather
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Far behind us hills of Quinlon
Soon before us the hills of heather
And you know, boys, the candles glow, boys
In the windows of Mingulay
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Heave her head round to the weather
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Wives are waiting by the pierhead
Or looking seaward from the heather
Heave her round boys and we’ll anchor
Ere the sun sets on Mingulay
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Heave her head round to the weather
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Heave her head round to the weather
Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
Sailing homewards to Mingulay
