And
I have wanderedin the western isles and
I have sangwith men of timethe evening sunreflects a stranger smilethe colour red in sea and stone and in the eastthe shadows fill the covesand ghostly womenwalk in tearsthe miners crawlunder the
Firth of
Forthwith metal ringing in their ears
Though men may sufferon an evil seaand live the sorrowof the timesthe tide of coal dustmoves away from meand scarlet bellsbegin to chime
