'S muladach mi's mi air maineol |
I am sad in exile |
|
Hi ri ri ri a bho |
Hi ri ri ri a bho |
|
'S eisleanach mi's a chluain rainich |
Distressed standing on the bracken plain |
|
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
|
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |

'S eisleanach mi's a chluain rainich |
Distressed standing on the bracken plain |
|
Hi ri ri ri a bho |
Hi ri ri ri a bho |
|
Coimhead bhuam air cuan na Hearadh |
Looking across the Sound of Harris |
|
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
|
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |

Looking across the Sound of Harris |

Hi ri ri ri a bho |
Hi ri ri ri a bho |

'S nach fhaic mi tighinn mo leannan |
I do not see my sweetheart |

Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
|
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |

Hi ri ri ri a bho |

Geugaire fionn foghaintidh fearail |
A fair, brave, handsome stripling |

Suil ghorm 's an aodann nach greannach |
He has blue eyes in a smooth-skinned face |
|
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
|
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |

Mala chaol gun chaochladh seallaidh |
A smooth forehead that is never furrowed |
|
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Ho ro ho ao ri ho huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
|
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
Huri bhi iu ho ro ho |
