Currach - Elephant Revival

Moon bright one night

Young son did wake

Crawled out of his crib

Without my waking

Through the door, through the gate

Down to the dock

Into a shaky currach

As a storm’s breaking

The storm rolls

Took my baby out to sea

The storm blows

Took my babe away from me

Lightning striking

First caused my rise

To the dismay of my eye

I found my child missing

So through the door, through the gate

Down to the dock

I saw a shaky currach

Into the horizon slipping

The storm rolls

Took my baby out to sea

The storm blows

Took my babe away from me

I spoke to the wind

The wind spoke to him

Show comfort, show strength, give hope

And through the wind, my son did send

Comfort, strength, hope

Wind blow, wind blow

Fill the sails

Bring my baby back to me

Wind blow, wind blow

Fill the sails

Bring him safely back from sea
