My eye would be on your beauty |

Sčist: |
Chorus (after each verse): |
|
Ghealaich ghil a dh'fhoillsich fearann |
Bright white moon that casts light on land |
|
E ho hi ri ri o ho |
E ho hi ri ri o ho |
|
Ho ro o, o hu o |
Ho ro o, o hu o |
|
E ho hi ri ri o ho |
E ho hi ri ri o ho |
| |
|
|
Siubhal fo lan eideadh |
Moving under full sail |
|
Mathair nan reula |
The mother of the stars |
|
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
| |
|
|
O na bi'n eud ruinn |
Oh don't be jealous of us |
|
A bheathaich na ceudan |
You who have provided for hundreds |
|
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
| |
|
|
Thoir dhuinn tha 'g eirigh |
Give to us who are climbing |
|
Boid nach eireadh beud dhuinn |
A solemn promise that no harm will come to us |
|
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
| |
|
|
Iobair air reitich |
A sacrifice at a betrothal |
|
Gu meudach na spreidhe |
To increase the cattle |
|
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
Ho ri o hu o, e ho hi ri ri o ho |
| |
|
|
Hi ri o ho |
Hi ri o ho |
|
Hi ri o ho |
Hi ri o ho |
