The Ellan Vannin Tragedy - Richard Hawley/Smoke Fairies
Snaefell tynwald ben my chree

Fourteen ships had sailed the sea
Proudly bearing a manx name

But there's one will never again
Oh ellan vannin isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

At one am in ramsey bay

Captain Teare was heard to say
Our contract said deliver the mail

In this rough weather we must not fail
Oh ellan vannin the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

Ocean liners sheltered from the storm
Ellan vannin on the wave was borne
Her hold was full and battened down

As she sailed far Liverpool town
Oh ellan vannin of the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

With a crew of twenty one manxmen
Her passengers Liverpool businessmen
Farewell to Mona's isle farewell

This little ship was bound for hell
Oh ellan vannin of the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

Less than a mile from the bar lightship
By a mighty wave ellan vannin was hit
She sank in the waters of Liverpool bay

There she lies until this day

Oh ellan vannin of the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

Few manxmen now remember
The third day of the month December
The terrible storm in nineteen nine

Ellan vannin sailed for the very last time
Oh ellan vannin of the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

Oh ellan vannin of the isle of man company

Oh ellan vannin lost in the irish sea

Lost in the irish sea

Lost in the irish sea

Lost in the irish sea
