Hi,

Nice one, that Boreas version.
("Ednburrah", is just about hearing the right mental sound, so I can read on without stumbling. E.g. How much easier reading Robinson Crusoe becomes once you realise the family is from Krus'aa.)

Back to the lyrics:
I recall a final(?) verse along the lines of "First you must catch the fish, else you can't sell them on the quay." Does that ring a bell with anyone?

Bye
