They came at dawn from out the darkness
Swords and torches in their hands
They said it was the chieftains orders
Clear the hillsides and the glens
No more we'd smell the broom and the heather
Share the bannock with our kin
Be laid to rest beside our fathers
It almost broke our hearts and minds
To board the ship, the ship of tears
To board the ship, the ship of tears
We crossed the sea to flee the hunger
Wasted rags of skin and bone
The fields we left were black and barren
A ravaged land no longer home
The coffin ships were filled with mourning
We'd one last look back to the land
The quiet men, the women keening
It almost broke our hearts and minds
To leave the fields. the fields of tears
To leave the fields, the fields of tears
They came in floods in covered wagons
Drove across our ancient lands
They said to scorn our elders wisdom
Take the path their lord commands
They stole our hills, they stole our rivers
The mother earth with whom we're joined
They lead us from our spirit fathers
It almost broke our hearts and minds
To walk the trail, the trail of tears
To walk the trail, the trail of tears
They came in hordes across the desert
Storms of dust that sear the skin
They said they'd come from our oppressor
They would make a meal of him
They said that we would earn our freedom
And come to see their way is right
But still we weep and we are bleeding
They have not won our hearts and minds
We're on the road, the road of tears
We're on the road, the road of tears
It never ends the road of tears, the road of tears,
the road of tears.

The Isle of Skye occupies an almost mythical place in the minds of many Scots. Romantic castles, magnificent seascapes, the alpine peaks of the Cuillin Ridge, marching pipe bands, scattered white crofters' cottages and a bloody history; the island has all these and more. This book features 40 moderate walks that take in much of this celebrated landscape, but reveal hidden gems too. In spite of its popularity Skye is still rich in undiscovered treasures, from coastal caves and arches, ruined villages cruelly cleared of their inhabitants, to fossilised dinosaur footprints and a rich array of wildlife. Written by Skye residents Paul and Helen Webster, these walks will reveal both the wild and gentler sides of this dramatic landscape. Isle of Skye: 40 Coast and Country Walks (Pocket Mountains).
