Summary

An emigrant's song to the Isle of Mull. The poet is heavy hearted to be so far from the island where he was born. He was once sure of a welcome in the glens, but now his people are scattered, replaced by sheep. The house he lived in is in ruins. He encourages the younger generation to raise the banner of the Gaelic language.
