  As  we sailed the              Mhairi  Bhan            Home

(Verse 2)
And that tired old lady she had served us well
Through the straits and calms to the banks of Hell
And all hearts were broken on that final day
As we sailed the Mhairi Bhan home

           Ho      ro           we           oh         children of the sea


(Verse 3)
Now a man is foolish if he thinks he knows
All of times delusions, its ebbs and flows
But all eyes were empty on that final day
As we sailed the Mhairi Bhan home

(Verse 4)
And we have the children and their growth to feed
But there's no relaxing our nation's greed
And all future perished on that final day
As we sailed the Mhairi Bhan home

(Chorus)

(Verse 5)
He is our captain and he is a brave and rolling man
A salty dog we all agree
He tells us stories of the fishing in his father's time
That we find just too hard to believe

(Verse 6)
He is our captain and he's not afraid to face the wind
And with the wind he's not afraid to run
But poor progress has put his ship upon these rugged
rocks lean
