The wonders of RU-vid - came across you completely by accident while looking for the best version of this great song and I've just found it ! - really beautiful (and simple) version
How strange that I happen to find this beautiful song while visiting my daughter Rhiannon's gave today. The piper played this on her burial day. Blessings to you ☘💚☘💚
The Dark Island Away to the west's where I'm longing to be, Where the beauties of heaven unfold by the sea, Where the sweet purple heather blooms fragrant and free, On a hilltop high above the Dark Island. Chorus Oh, isle of my childhood, I'm dreaming of thee, As the steamer leaves Oban and passes Tiree, Soon I'll capture the magic that lingers for me, When I'm back once more upon the Dark Island. So gentle the sea breeze that ripples the bay, Where the stream joins the ocean, and young children play; On the strand of pure silver, I'll welcome each day, And I'll roam for ever more the Dark Island. Chorus True gem of the Hebrides, bathed in the light Of the midsummer dawning that follows the night How I yearn for the cries of the seagulls in flight. As they circle high above the Dark Island
