Thread Name: Mingulay Boat Song again
Subject: RE: Mingulay Boat Song again
The last verse which I sing was passed to me some 30 years ago, and is not in the DT. I don't know the source of this verse, but I like singing it:

Bless the stars that do guide our journey
Bless our boats that do carry us safely
Bless our wives who are waiting patiently
All on the seashore at Mingulay
