Guiding Light and the Evening Star
Spes Malore and the Anster Belle
Nae boats noo doon in the harbour
But aye, Ah mind on them weel
Aye, Ah mind on them weel

In darkness ye’d look ower the Forth
Tae see the boats by their lichts
Awa tae the east o the May
Like a toon lit up in the nicht
Like a toon lit up in the nicht

An ye kent that the Sabbath was endin
When ye heard the boots o the men
Soond doon the wynd tae the harbour
Time for the fishin again
It’s time for the fishin again

And ye thocht on the man nearly lost
Wha was ta’en frae his boat by a wave
He was put back on deck by anither
An we thanked the Lord he was saved
Aye we thanked the Lord he was saved

There’s nae drifters noo, there’s nae trawlers
Ye’re nearer tae Dogger at Shields
They telt me a the guid reasons
It’s tae dae wi siller an’ yields
It’s tae dae wi siller an’ yields
