Song to the seals Lyrics – Granville Bantock

A sea maid sings on yonder reef
The spell-bound seals draw near;
Her lilt that lures beyond belief
Mortals enchanted hear

Hoiran, oiran, oiran, oiro
Hoiran, oiran, oiran, eero
Hoiran, oiran, oiran, eelaleuran
Hoiran, oiran, oiran, eero

The wond’ring ploughman halts his plough
The maid her milking stays
While sheep on hillside, birds on bough
Pause and listen in amaze

Was it a dream, were all asleep
Or did she cease her strain?
For the seals with a splash dive into the deep
And the world goes on again

But lingers the refrain
