English Translation: |
|
|
O mo dhùthaich' stu th'air m'aire |
Oh my country, you are on my mind |
Uibhist chùmhraidh ùr nan gallan |
Fresh, fragrant Uist of the saplings |
Far a faighte na daoin' uaisle |
Where the noble men are found |
Far 'm bu dual do Mhac 'ic Ailein |
Who gave their hereditary allegiance to Mac ic Ailein |
|
|
Tìr a' mhurain, tìr an eorna |
Land of seabed, land of barley |
Tìr 's am pailt a h-uile seòrsa |
Land of abundance of every kind |
Far am bi na gillean òga |
Where the young lads will be |
Gabhail òran 's 'g òl an lionna |
Singing songs and drinking beer |
|
|
Thig iad ugainn, carach, seòlta |
Whey will come to us, cunning and wily |
Gus ar mealladh far ar n-eòlais |
In order to entice us from our homes |
Molaidh iad dhuinn Manitòba |
They will praise Manitoba to us |
Dùthaich fhuar gun ghual, gun mhòine |
A cold country with no coal and no peat |
