Testo Celia of the Seals - Donovan

Celia of the Seals

Should you wander this land to the North,\nAnd few seldom do,\nShould you follow the song of the gull\nTo enchanted western isles,\nCoax a fisherman to take you out\nWhere the silky seals are seen,\nHear the stories that they tell about\nThe maiden who is their queen,\nThe maiden who is their queen.\nCelia of the seals,\nShe knows just how they feel,\nCelia of the seals.\n«Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay»\n«Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay»\nSeal hunters are not brave and bold,\nThey murder her poor wee seals\nAnd cut off their skins to be sold,\nCursed be he who deals.\nThere’s no reason for this slaughtering,\nThey’re left on the rocks to bleed\nHe’s not a man who does this thing,\nIt’s a cruel and a heartless deed,\nA cruel and a-heartless deed.\nCelia of the seals,\nShe knows just how they feel,\nCelia of the seals.\nCelia of the seals,\nCelia of the seals,\nShe knows just how they feel,\nCelia of the seals,\nCelia of the seals,\nCelia of the seals,\n«Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay»\n«Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay»
