Anna La Mare | Sailor's on the Wind (Ardnish Was Home)- Live at Char's Landing, Port Alberni BC
04/04/23
We were sailors on the wind
Proud and honest fighting men
Thrown like nets into the storm
Our backs to Ardnish and the farm
I told her stories as I lay
Cannons shook the crimson bay
She took my hand, I knew it true
She was the land that I once knew
Chorus:
Birds soar far from home
Never to return alone
Crossing any seas, they will ever find her
O’er the stone, and the many once held homes
In the fading light is where I’ll hold and find her
Take my chanters there to lie
Where the bonnie battles cried
‘Neath the heather where they’re lain
They’re yours forever till again
Chorus 2:
Tides come and go
But the banks are what we know
Hold ye briny pearls, there’s to need to rowe
O’er the stone, and the many once held homes
In that moor’s last light is where I’ll always find you
Till cold death shall blind mine eyes
You will be my highland bride
Play one soft by tremblin’ string
And I will come to you again
