Sing to me about who sailed on the sky,
Maybe it is me?
Cheerful soul, he is in the sea is gone,
Fled far away land.
Mull astern, the left - RAM,
Right at the rate of zooming;
Young flame burning in it,
Faded, alas, forever.
<...>
The former song I bring,
Hot sun give
Vigilance and bring ardor back -
I haven't sailed on the sky!
<...>
Wind, wave, ocean, Islands,
Shower, space and light
All that was once me,
And now I'm gone.
Sing me a song of a lad that is gone,
Say, could that lad be I?
Merry of soul he sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skye.
Mull was astern, Rum on the port,
Eigg on the starboard bow;
Glory of youth glowed in his soul:
Where is that glory now?
<...>
Give me again all that was there,
Give me the sun that shone!
Give me the eyes, give me the soul,
Give me the lad that's gone!
<...>
Billow and breeze, islands and seas,
Mountains of rain and sun,
All that was good, all that was fair,
All that was me is gone.
