O-E Dallay (The Song)

©1972 Bok

        

Lathan mo run
O-E-Dallay, lathan.
the Telling of O-E-Dallay
Wind west and tide westing:
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Lo Lathan, mo run.

Down on the wave
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Wind west and tide westing:
Came he by day, singing
Lo lathan, mo run.

I gave to him
All in my heart's keeping.
He gave to me, 'Laughing,
Sea shells and sea's yearning
. Lo lathan, mo run.

I gave to him
All in my heart's morning.
He gave to me, weeping,
A baby died borning.
Lo lathan, mo run.

October wind
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Wind west and tide westing:
And I go down, running.
Lo lathan, mo run.

There was no one there
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Only the seal crying,
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Lo lathan, mo run.

There was no one
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Only the seal crying.
O-E-Dallay, lathan,
Lo lathan, mo run.

O-E Dalley (The Song) is recorded on the CD Seal Djiril's Hymn
