Under the shade of a Coolibah tree

And he sang as he stowed that jumbuck in his tucker bag

Skye Boat Song
Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing,
Onward! the sailors cry;
Carry the lad that’s born to be King
Over the sea to Skye.

Thunderclouds rend the air;
Baffled, our foes stand by the shore,
Follow they will not dare.

Hold me close and hold me fast, The magic spell you cast
This is "La vie en rose"

I see "La vie en rose"
When you press me to your heart, I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak, angels sing from above
Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me, And life will always be
"La vie en rose"

And if I hope that when we meet again we nevermore shall part
She's the sweetest little lady a fella ever knew
Her eyes are bright as diamonds, they sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your dearest girls and sing the Rosalie
But the Yellow Rose of Texas beats the belles of Tennessee
