Song of the Sea Page #4

---

Aye, you must be swift.

Climb on Cu's back

with your sister.

You are a brave and loyal dog.

May the wind travel with you,

may your journey be swift,

for you carry the hope of all the

Shee with you this dawn. Go now!

Go, Cu, run!

Whoa-how.!

Go, Cu!

Oh, they're gone.

Whom!

Whoa!

No, stay awake, Saoirse.

Cu, go as quick as you can.

There's home.

It's going to be all right.

We're going to find your

coat and you'll be better.

Cu will stay with you.

Dad, where's Saoirse's coat?

Ben? What?

What are you doing here?

What did you do

with Saoirse's coat?

Saoirse's what?

Where is she?

She's up at the light.

She needs it.

Saoirse.

Saoirse, no.

Dad! She needs her coat, Dad.

Stop it, Ben.

No, Dad. What did you do

with Saoirse's coat?

Ben, stop this.

She needs to get to a hospital.

Where is her coat?

It's gone, all right?

I threw it into the ocean.

I should've done it years ago.

Now, get in the boat!

I can get...

I can get her coat back.

I can do this.

Sit down, Ben.

Ben?

Ben! Ben!

Ben!

Stay with her, Cu.

Ben! Ben!

Ben?

Huh.

Oh.

Saoirse?

She's a selkie

like Mum.

Isn't she?

Yeah.

Whoo-hoo!

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Ben?

Saoirse?

She's not getting better.

She has to sing.

I don't know if she can.

Try and copy me, Saoirse, okay?

Try it, Saoirse.

Between the here

Between the now

Between the north

Between the south

I am a selkie

A selkie of the sea

Wow! It's Mac Lir!

All truths will never bear

The promise

Of old

Whoa!

Dad, look.

Mum! Mum, please?

Wait. Please, don't.

Please, don't take her from us.

Please, Mum.

She's all we have.

All of my kind

must leave tonight.

But, Saoirse,

you are part human.

If I take her coat, our

worlds will be untangled.

Mum...

And she can stay with you.

Mum, I want to stay.

Bronach.

I loved you so much.

I still do.

Can't you stay,

too, Mum? Please?

My son.

Remember me, in your stories

and in your songs.

Know that I will

always love you.

Always.

Bye.

It's as though I've been asleep,

all these years.

I'm so sorry.

I know, Dad.

Thank God! I thought

you were all killed.

Ooh!

Hold it.

Granny!

We're all right now, Mum.

We're all right now.

Ben, Dad, come on, quick!

Two seconds,

we'll finish this off.

All right, make a wish

and blow them out on three.

One, two, three.

Hush now my Storeen

Close your eyes and sleep

Waltzing the waves

Diving the deep

Stars are shining bright

The wind is on the rise

Whispering words

Of long-lost lullabies

Oh, won't you come with me?

Where the moon is made of gold

And in the morning sun

We'll be sailing

Oh, won't you come with me?

Where the ocean meets the sky

And as the clouds roll by

We'll sing the song of the sea

I had a dream last night

And heard the sweetest sound

I saw a great white light

And dancers in the round

Castles in the sand

Cradles in the trees

Don't cry I'll see you by and by

Oh, won't you come with me?

Where the moon is made of gold

And in the morning sun

We'll be sailing

Oh, won't you come with me?

Where the ocean meets the sky

And as the clouds roll by

We'll sing the song of the sea
