The great Selkie - Cécile Corbel (赛西儿·柯贝尔)[00:00:00]

An earthly nurse sits and sings[00:00:10]

And aye she sings by lily wean[00:00:15]

Saying "Little ken I my bairn's father[00:00:20]

Far less the land where he dwells in"[00:00:25]

For he came on night to her bed feet[00:00:29]

And a grumbly guest i'm sure was he[00:00:35]

Saying "Here am I thy bairn's father[00:00:39]

Although I be not comely"[00:00:45]

"I am a man upon the land[00:00:50]

I am a silkie on the sea[00:00:54]

And when I'm far and far frae land[00:00:59]

My home it is in sule skerrie"[00:01:04]

And he had ta'en a purse of gold[00:01:18]

And he had placed it upon her knee[00:01:24]

Saying Give to me my little young son[00:01:28]

And take thee up thy nurse's fee[00:01:33]

"And it shall come to pass on a summer's day[00:01:38]

When the sun shines bright on every stane[00:01:43]

I'll come and fetch my little young son[00:01:48]

And teach him how to swim the faem"[00:01:53]

"I am a man upon the land[00:01:58]

I am a silkie on the sea[00:02:03]

And when I'm far and far frae land[00:02:08]

My home it is in sule skerrie[00:02:13]

"And ye shall marry a gunner good[00:02:18]

And fine gunner I'm sure he'll be[00:02:23]

And the very first shot that e'er he shoots[00:02:28]

Will kill both my young son and me[00:02:33]

"I am a man upon the land[00:02:38]

I am a silkie on the sea[00:02:43]

And when I'm far and far frae land[00:02:48]

My home it is in sule skerrie"[00:02:52]
