Alasdair Roberts & Robin Robertson – Leaving St Kilda
At last we turn away, and see them
leading us: bow-riding dolphins,
our grey familiars,
and thirty gannets in a line
drawing straight from Boreray:
a gannet guard
for this far passage,
for the leaving of St Kilda.A collaboration between folk musician Alasdair Roberts & poet Robin Robertson, from their album Hirta Songs.
