Fail ill é hill ù hill ó Hiuraibh ó na hó ro éile Fail ill é hill ù hill ó. Dh'éirich mi moch madainn Chéitein, Mas moch an-diugh bu mhuich' an dé e. 'S binn a' chòisir rinn mi éisdeachd. Smeòraichean air bhàrr nan geugan, Uiseagan os cionn an t-sléibhe. 'S bòidhche fhiamh 's a' ghrian ag éirigh, Madainn chiùin fo dhriùchd nan speuran, Bric air linneachan a' leumraich. Leannaidh slàinte agus éibhneas Riùthasan a bhios moch ag éirigh. translation I arose early on a May morning. If early today it was earlier yesterday. Sweet was the choir I listened to, thrushes on the tops of the branches, larks above the moor. Beautiful is the prospect, with the sun rising, a calm morning under the dew of the heavens, trout leaping in the pools. There will follow health and happiness for those who rise early

Actual Lyrics: On a night as black as a Raven's feather Thunder clap like a snap of leather And the wind whips through the black spruce on the shore The waves are pounding on the beaches harder As the last of the fishermen reach safe harbour And the wind turns cold, cuts through the core Out on the wild Northumberland Strait A ball of fire skips o'er the waves Those who watch can't believe their eyes There's a burst of flame and flash of light There on the tide is a frightening sight As the tall ship in flames lights up the sky Tales of the Phantom Ship, from truck to keel in flames She sails the wild Northumberland Strait, no one knows her name Tales of the Phantom Ship, it's the ship of fire they cry Hard against the wind she sails, no one can say why They say she's a three-master square rigger Four-hundred tons, maybe a bit bigger With fire in every rope and spar and sail Out of the east though the wind blows west She plows the strait on an unknown quest cutting through the waves with the strength of a full-force gale Of why she appears none can know Some say it's nothing but a moon-lit glow But those who've see her swear they tell no lies They tell how her bow suddenly drops down As in depths of the strait she's bound And the wind goes wild with wailing, chilling cries Tales of the Phantom Ship, from truck to keel in flames She sails the wild Northumberland Strait, no one knows her name Tales of the Phantom Ship, it's the ship of fire they cry Hard against the wind she sails, no one can say why Some say she's an immigrant ship of old Highland Scots whose land was stole And lost at sea while seeking the new land Or a ghostly American Privateer Who plundered innocent harbours here Cursed to sail the strait, forever damned But an old man sang a song to me Six hundred Acadians drowned at sea Deported long ago from St. John's Isle He says they sail this choppy strait Through time and tide they navigate Searching for the means to end their long exile Tales of the Phantom Ship, from truck to keel in flames She sails the wild Northumberland Strait, no one knows her name Tales of the Phantom Ship, it's the ship of fire they cry Hard against the wind she sails, no one can say why Tales of the Phantom Ship, from truck to keel in flames She sails the wild Northumberland Strait, no one knows her name She sells the wild Northumberland Strait, when will she sail again?

@@davebrittain9216 Well for a simple first example you've written "a thunder clap like a slap of leather" but if you listen it's clearly "thunder crack like a snap of leather" and while yours looks nicer when spoken, the rest of the song gives no precedent for there being an internal rhyme in that specific line and in the second verse "five hundred feet maybe, a bit bigger" throws off the timing while he sings "five hundred feet or maybe bigger" Things like that. Perhaps he sang this version differently to the version from which these lyrics were transposed. But there's a bunch of little things like that all throughout it.

Growing up in Pictou from 1971 on, right on the Strait, I heard so many Tales, and saw some odd things in my childhood, but I can't say I saw the Ship. I would have loved to ( being a horror fan and a FAMOUS MONSTERS Monster Kid ). Surprised that no one has done a proper video of this song, with some sweet FX of the Ship roaring through a storm, fully engulfed in flame...

A former co worker of mine from Summerside claimed to have seen the ship when he was at the beach with a friend or friends. I asked if he was drunk at the time but he said he was stone sober. That all of the story I can remember. I don't even remember what beach he said, but whatever, who knows?
