Clannad
Skelling
Like mighty ships that sail Atlantic foamThe skellig isles parade the kerry coastIt's a strange placeWith a needle's eyeWhere shipwrecks lieWhere the king of the worldRested for a whileAnd a place for the pilgrimA sanctuary of timeFourteen steps to nowhereOut of solid stoneDon't lead us to the heavensOr lead us to the seaThe vikings came to plunder and destroyBut to this day the holy relics standIn a blind mans coveWhere the wailing woman sighsAnd the seagulls cryWhere the king of the worldRested for a whileAnd a place for the pilgrimA sanctuary of timeFourteen steps to nowhereLetras de cancionesOut of solid stoneDon't lead us to the heavensOr lead us to the seaA journey to these islands so rareThe sound of screaming souls that fill the airA thousand wingsAgainst the skyAnd grey seal's disguisedWhere the king of the worldRested for a whileAnd a place for the pilgrimA sanctuary of timeFourteen steps to nowhereOut of solid stoneDon't lead us to the heavensOr lead us to the sea
