Summary
In this song a woman tells how she is alone in the islands of Jura. She sees a boat going through the sound, and knows her lover is at the helm. He is praised as a hunter of the moorcock, greyhen and red grouse. If the woman had her wish, he would own a lot of land. This would include Mull and Islay, Kintyre and Arran.
