Dheanainn Sugradh

Struck
By the haunting
Cadence
The Gael song.

Reefs taken in
Reefs taken out
Waves under her bow
Her booming and whistling
And I a promise to keep
And the dark haired girl.
And the sorrow song.

The forsaken fields
And the memory
Of the dark haired girl
Left a sleeping,
And the cold dawn light
And the fallow field
Resisting the plough

And the waves under the bow
And her song whistling
In the reefs
Over sullen water.
