Three loons gaed doon… An’ vanished clean awa’. [Verse 1] Th’ lantren stuid, Nae flame, nae gleam. A plate o’ breid, A chair, tipped sair. Nae saul inside, Jist seabird skraichs An’ silence hingin’ Thick as a snare. [Chorus] Th’ sea taks whit it wints, Frae reef tae rope. A whusper rides th’ tide… Naebody copes. Th’ licht is gaun… It ne’er cam hame. [Bagpipes instrumentals] [Verse 2] A selkie sat by th’ tide, Her skin wis grey, her mou wide. She sang wi’ ease, They bent like trees— An’ follaed her inside. [Instrumental – pipes solo + ambient textures] [Verse 3] One cloak wis gaun. He steppit oot. Th’ ithers cam… They tae did bide. Th’ lamp still staunds, But dim, nae flame— It bears their names… It kens their shame. [Chorus] Th’ sea ne’er leaves a trace. It swallaws hale. It hauds whit daurs tae pass… An’ grips the saul. Th’ licht is lost… It ne’er cam hame. [Instrumental interlude] [Bridge] A hum doon belaw, A drone, sae low. Bagpipes greetin’ Unner th’ sea’s roar. [Bagpipes solo] [Outro – bagpipes solo, reverb-heavy, fading slowly] Sae dinna mock Th’ sea’s black tide. Flannan’s blight Still walks… still bides. [Instrumental fade out]
