Faili, faili, faili o ro |
Faili, faili, faili o ro |
|
Faili, faili, faili o ro |
Faili, faili, faili o ro |

Faili, faili, faili o ro |
Faili, faili, faili o ro |
|
'S cian nan cian bho dh'fhag mi Leodhas |
It is a time of long times since I left Lewis |
| |
|
|
'S fhada leam an oidhche gheamhraidh |
I feel the winter night long |
|
'S fhada 's fhada 's fhada leam i |
Long, long, long it is |
|
'S nach fhaic mi ach preiridh lom ann |
I can see nothing but a bare prairie there |
|
'S cha chluinn tonn ri tigh'nn gu traigh ann |
And I can't hear a wave coming to the shore |
| |
|
|
'N am do'n fheasgar a bhi ciaradh |
In the evening time when it's getting dark |
|
'S tric a bhios mo spiorad cianail |
Often the spirit will be full of longing |
|
Smaoineachadh g' el cian nan cian uam |
Thinking that there is a long, long distance |
|
Far 'm bu mhiann leam dhol a cheilidh |
From where I would like to be ceilidhing |
