Lyrics:

'S tric mi sealltainn o'n chnòc a's àirde
Dh'fheuch am faic mi fear a bhàta
An tig thu'n diùigh no'n tig thu màireach
'S mur tig thu idir gur truagh a tà' mi

Sèist: Chorus (after each verse):

Fhir a bhata 'sna horo eile Oh boatman 'sna horo eile
Fhir a bhata 'sna horo eile Oh boatman 'sna horo eile
Fhir a bhata 'sna horo eile Oh boatman 'sna horo eile
Mo shòraidh slàn leat 's gach àit an teid thu

Tha mo chridhe-sa briste brùite
'S tric na deóir a ruith o'm shùilean
An tig thu nochd no'm bi mo dhùil riut
No'n dùin mi'n dorus le osna thùrsaich

Gheall mo leannan dhomh gùn dhe'n t-sìoda
Gheall e siod agus breacan rìomhach
Fainn òir anns an fàiginn iomhaigh
Ach 's eagal leam gun dean e di-chuimhn'

Bidh mi tuille gu tùrsach deùrach
Mar eala bhàn 's an déigh a reùbadh
Guileag bàis aic' air lochan feùrach
Is cach uile an déigh a tréigsinn

Great song- Sad tune though. It's a 19th century Scottish ballad
about a love that went out to sea. Yes I know the above is in Gaelic, but it's more beautiful that way.

Thanks for faving my work - I appreciate it.

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light
Don't try to save me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right
No prob. :)

I AM the king of fluffy white rice.
New work- most of it's on my computer. I'm putting the poetry together for a new compilation. I haven't gotten around to transferring it.
As far as painting I have been in a holding pattern since the creation of Power of Three. (Which isn't going to be released until I get the ISBN) In good news I'm getting some magazines to notice me, so that's cool. :)
