Hail ya ho boys, let her go boys
Turn her head 'round into the weather
Hail ya ho boys, let her go boys
Sailing homeward to Mingalay
What care we how wild the Minch is?
What care we now for windy weather?
For we know boys, every inch is
Bringing us closer to Mingalay
Well our hearts they, they shook inside us
On the night of the hurricane
Now the stars come out to guide us
Guide us home to Mingalay
We are waiting by the harbor
We've been waiting since break of day
We are waiting by the harbor
Where the suns sets on, on Mingalay
So hail ya ho boys, let her go boys
Turn her head 'round into the weather
Hail ya ho boys, let her go boys
Sailing home to Mingalay
Sailing home, sailing home, sailing home
Oh, through the wind and the rain
Through the wind and the rain
Through the wind, through the wind
Through the wind and the rain
Sailing home, sailing home, sailing home
