Gaelic Translation: There he stood on the shore With the world in his eyes Then he left his home And his family behind And he cast his nets out On the wide open seas Where the warm winds cover The face of the deep The shadows stretch out Through the streets of the town And the dark lonely night Sets it's snares all around But the boats sail at dawn Under confident skies Where the men of the island Leave to follow their lives I remember the night When the going got rough How you fought for that sea You were so worthy of Though the storm raged and tore Like a merciless fire All you ever felt Was peace of mind
