Eala Bhan

Eala Bhan

Eala Bhan (The White Swan) sung by Julie Fowlis

Gliding with serene grace

Making stately progress

Across the mirrored water

A cotton cloud brought to earth

And set upon this lake

For my singular delight

An elegant improbable dream

Drifting into sight

Pushing gentle ripples

Before a prow of feathered white

Elegant sails arched above

Trailing a gaggle of cygnets

In loud disorderly procession

Then around the headland spit

And lost to sight

Dedicated to ALG
