Verse 1:

Should you wander this land to the North,

And few seldom do,

Should you follow the song of the gull

To enchanted western isles,

Coax a fisherman to take you out

Where the silky seals are seen,

Hear the stories that they tell about

Prechorus:

The maiden who is their queen,

D(mute the high E string) G C G

The maiden who is their queen.

Verse 2:

Seal hunters are not brave and bold,

They murder her poor wee seals

And cut off their skins to be sold,

Cursed be he who deals.

There's no reason for this slaughtering,

They're left on the rocks to bleed

He's not a man who does this thing,

Prechorus:

It's a cruel and a heartless deed,

A cruel and a-heartless deed.
