Karen Matheson - Mi le M' uilinn video free download

From The Dreaming Sea. With Donald Shaw on piano and Tommy Smith on soprano sax.

Words and music by Murdo MacFarlane

With my elbow on my knee

I am overcome by sadness whilst making this poem

Chorus (after each verse):

Tears fell from my eyes when he left under sail

As the tall mast grew small

It is my intention

A glimpse of my love

Walking on board the deck beneath the sails

Oh North Wind, blow gently

Until he reaches the waters of the Clyde

A promise that I will not forget my love

In rescue it will increase

Oh North Wind, bring him

Home in good health
