O-E-Dallay

O-E-Dallay
(Gordon Bok)

Lathan mo run, O-E-Dallay, lathan
Wind west and tide westing
O-E-Dallay, lathan, lo,lathan, mo run

Down on the wave, O-E-Dallay lathan
Wind west and tide westing
Came he by day singing, lo lathan mo run

I gave to him all in my heart's keeping
He gave to me laughing
Sea shells and sea's yearning, lo lathan mo run

I gave to him all in my heart's morning
He gave to me weeping,
A baby died borning Lo lathan mo run

October wind, O-E-Dallay lathan
Wind west and tide westing
And I go down running lo lathan mo run

There was no one there, O-E-Dallay lathan
Only the seal crying
O-E-Dallay lathan, lo lathan mo run

There was no one there, O-E-Dallay lathan
Only the seal crying
O-E-Dallay lathan, lo lathan mo run

about a silkie and his wife
