Two men came to your ha' door
And you did not let them in
And you did not care
What had brought them there
They were bones covered up wi' skin
And when you looked again
They were five or ten
All sighing a sorrowful sound
Did you hear the knell
Of the warning bell
Or the howl of a hunting hound
As the night's grew long
Did you hear the throng
Roar like a ralliach tide
Through the rising flood
Did you hear your own blood
Or the sound of a tear not cried
They will wait no more at your ha' door
For their waiting days are done
And there's no lock nor key
That can hold back the sea
There's no chains on the rising sun
