Altar Isle O`The Sea
Altar Isle O`The Sea
Eilean Rùm, Eilean Rùm,
Eilean Rùm, mochree,
Evver haunt I the Byàllach,
Gazing outward to sea,
Floating clouds lie above,
Floating Coolins below,
Tirnanog o` my heart,
Floats my dream to thy glow.
Ever floating, ever floating,
ever floating by thee,
Are white clouds of incense,
Altar Isle o` the sea,
Like incense of love,
Rising out of the gloom,
Are the mist wreaths that float
on thy blue peaks, O Rùm,
Eilean Rùm, Eilean Rùm,
Eilean Rùm, mochree,
Sure a vow I am making,
Altar Isle o` the sea,
Floatingmistwreaths above,
Floating Coolins below,
Tirnanog o` my heart,
Glides my dream to thy glow.
