Chorus (after each verse): |
|
O 's fhada bhuainn Anna |
Oh far from us is Anna |
|
He hoireann o, 'n i do leannan? |
He hoireann o, is she your sweetheart? |
|
O 's fhada bhuainn Anna |
Oh far from us is Anna |
| |
|
|
Chuala mi gun d'dhiult thu'n t-armunn |
I heard that you refused the stalwart |
|
Mac Fhir Bhearnaraidh na Hearadh |
Son of the Laird of Berneray in Harris |
| |
|
|
Chuala mi gun d' dhiult thu'n t-uasal |
I heard that you refused the noble |
|
Le chruachan 's le thaighean geala |
With his stacks and his white houses |
| |
|
|
Gu de nist a bhios tu'g iarraidh |
Who, then, do you want |
|
'S nach gabh thu iarla no baran? |
When you won't take earl nor baron? |
| |
|
|
Chuala mi gun dtug thu'n __ |
I heard that you __ |
|
__ na Hearadh |
__ Harris |
| |
|
|
Ma's e uaisle tha thu'g iarraidh |
If it's nobility you are after |
|
Thoir ort Ciosamul am Barraigh |
Make for Kismul on Barra |
| |
|
|
Feumaidh tu bhith dha'n fhuil rioghail |
You have to be of royal blood |
|
Mu faigh thu MacNeill a Barraigh |
In order to get Mac Neil of Barra |
| |
|
|
Feumaidh tu bhith dhan fhuil uasail |
You must be of noble blood |
|
Mu faigh thu Ruairidh mar leannan |
To win Rory as your loved one |
