Lyrics:	English Translation:

Mo bhò dhubh mhòr a' siubhal bheann	My big black cow roaming the hills
Mo bhò dhubh mhòr a' tearnadh ghleann	My big black cow down into the glens
Mo bhò dhubh mhòr a' siubhal bheann	My big black cow roaming the hills
'S ann tha i sgìth 's a laogh air chall	She is tired and her calf lost to her

Tha i sgìth 's a laogh air chall	She is tired and her calf lost to her
'S ann tha i sgìth 's a laogh air chall	She is tired and her calf lost to her
'S ann tha i sgìth 's a laogh air chall	She is tired and her calf lost to her
Bho ghual a' ghlìnn gu bruach nan allt	From the shoulder of the glen to the banks of the streams

'Chaora ruadh a bh'air a' leacain	The russet sheep that was on the hillside
Cha do dh'fhuiling i riamh duin' fhaicinn	She never let anyone see her
Chuireadh i le fead a sròine	She'd put the shaggy dog on his back
Madadh ròmach air a dhruim	With a whistle from her nose
