|
An ciaradh m'fheasgair 's mo bheath' air claoidh |
When day is over and life is done |
Mo rosg air dunadh 's a' bhas gun chli |
Mine eyes have closed and my strength has gone |
Stiuir curs' an lar leam gu Eilean ciatach |
Oh westwards take me and quietly lay me |
Gu Aignish sgiamhach far an d'araich mi |
In Aignish graveyard beside the sea |
|
|
An sin gun cairich sibh mi 'san fhod |
There please leave me by kith and kin |
A measg mo chairdean 'smo shinnsrean coir |
By parents kindly and all my friends |
Ri tonnan barr-gheal a' bualadh traghad |
By white waves pounding on beaches sounding |
'Sri machair Aignish nan laoigh 's nam bo |
By Aignish graveyard beside the sea |
