Chorus

A good day on the island

Isle of Lewis my love

A good day on the island

Home of my thoughts forever more.

Verse 1

Waking early in the morning

The sun is shining down

The smell of the sea comes through the window

Everyone has woken up

Verse 2

The river is full of water

The salmon are coming again

The young boys are down on the bridge

Trying to catch one or two

Verse 3

Spring is here and also the longer days

The lambs are running around

The old men are out cutting the peat’s

That time of year has come again

Verse 4

The moon is up and the sun has gone to bed

Night time is now here

It is quiet and calm across the island

Its good to be alive

Its good to be alive
