Lyrics: English Translation:
   
Air rubha'n aiseig, thar' stuadh an t-sail On the harbor point, across the waves
Tha long mo bhruadair gam' sheoladh gun dail The ship of my dreams is steering me without delay
Tir a'Mhurain, cha toir mi fuath Land of rye grass, I bear you no ill-will
An cala, s'ceann-uidhe, Baghasdal mu thuath The harbor, the destination, North, Boisdale
   
'S bi'n fhaire a briseadh air machraichean uain' Dawn breaks on green machair
O bhaile mor nan geallaidhean, 'stric tha mo smuain Oh great town of promises, I think of you often
A tionndadh s'a tilleadh air sgiathan na gaoith Turning and returning on the wings of the wind
Gu cala, s'ceann-uidhe, Baghasdal mu thuath The harbor, the destination, North Boisdale
   
Alleluiah... Alleluiah...
   
Is cianail m'aigne, fo uallach s'gun fhois My mind is sad, burdened and restless
'S cruas nan cabhsairean gun ghainmhich fom chois The hard pavements without sand beneath my feet
O nach fhaicinn, Eireisgeidh 'san caol Oh if I could see Eriskay and the Kyle
'San cala, s ceann-uidhe, Baghasdal mo ghaol And the harbor, the destination, Boisdale, my lvove
   
Alleluiah... Alleluiah...
   
'S maduinn Di-Domhnaich le creideamh nar cridh' And on Sunday morning with faith in our hearts
Og is aosd', guidhe beannachd-na-sith Young and old offering the Peace Blessing
O Reul na Mara, na treig solus m'aigh Oh star of the ocean, don't desert my hope's light
An cala, 's ceann-uidhe, Uibhist mo ghraidh And the harbor, the destination, Uist, my love
   
Alleluiah... Alleluiah...
