From Lorre Wyatt – “The Hebrides, a group of islands off the west coast of Scotland, are noted for their beautiful work songs. This rousing sea song from Mingulay is one of my favorites.”
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Swing her head round into the weather
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Sailing homeward to Mingulay
What care we how wild the Minch is?
What care we for the wind or weather?
For you know, boys, every inch is
Closer home, now, to Mingulay
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Swing her head round into the weather
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Sailing homeward to Mingulay
Far behind us the peaks of Cuillin
Soon we'll see our own hills of heather
And you know boys, candles glow, boys
Lighting the windows of Mingulay
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Swing her head round into the weather
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Sailing homeward to Mingulay
Wives are waiting by the harbor
They have been waiting since break of day
Now you know boys that we'll anchor
As the night falls on Mingulay
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Swing her head round into the weather
Heel y'ho boys let her go boys
Sailing homeward to Mingulay
