Domhnall dubh an Domnallaich |
Black-haired Donald MacDonald |
A nochd an tòir air Mór a' Cheannaich |
Is tonight chasing after the merchant's daughter |
Domhnall dubh an Domnallaich |
Black-haired Donald MacDonald |
A nochd an tòir air Móraig |
Is tonight chasing after Morag |
Domhnall dubh an Domnallaich |
Black-haired Donald MacDonald |
A nochd an tòir air Mór a' Cheannaich |
Is tonight chasing after the merchant's daughter |
Domhnall dubh an Domnallaich |
Black-haired Donald MacDonald |
A nochd an tòir air Móraig |
Is tonight chasing after Morag |
