Lyrics

Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Heave her head round to the weather
 Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Sailing homeward to Mingulay
 What care we though white the Minch is
 What care we boys the wind and weather
 When we know that, every inch is
 Closer homeward to Mingulay
 Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Heave her head round to the weather
 Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Sailing homeward to Mingulay
 Wives are waiting by the pierhead
 Gazing seaward from the heather
 Heave ahead round and we'll anchor
 Ere the sun sets on Mingulay
 Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Heave her head round to the weather
 Heel ya ho, boys, let her go, boys
 Sailing homeward to Mingulay
 Sailing homeward to Mingulay
