Sir Harold Boulton, |
| Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing |
| Onward, the sailors cry! |
| Carry the lad that’s born to be King |
| Over the sea to Skye. |
| Loud the winds cry, loud the waves roar, |
| Thunderclaps rend the air. |
| Baffled our foes stand by the shore. |
| Follow they will not dare. |

| Many's the lad fought on that day |
| Well the claymore could wield, |
| When the night came silently lay |
| Dead on Culloden’s field. |
| Burned are our homes, exile and death |
| Scatter the loyal men. |
| Yet ere the sword cool in the sheath |
| Scotland will rise again! |
