Lyrics: | English Translation: |
An ciaradh m'fheasgair 's mo bheath' air claoidh | When day is over and life is done |
Mo rosg air dunadh 's a' bhas gun chli | Mine eyes have closed and my strength has gone |
Stiuir curs' an lar leam gu Eilean ciatach | O westwards take me and quietly lay me |
Gu Aignish sgiamhach far an d'araich mi | In Aignish graveyard beside the sea |
An sin gun cairich sibh mi 'san fhod | There please leave me by kith and kin |
A measg mo chairdean 'smo shinnsrean coir | By parents kindly and all my friends |
Ri tonnan barr-gheal a' bualadh traghad | By white waves pounding on beaches sounding |
'Sri machair Aignish nan laoigh 's nam bo | By Aignish graveyard beside the sea |
Bi eoin an aite gach la ri seinn | ___ |
'S an iarmailt ghorm sin gu h-ard os cionn | ___ |
Is machair Aignis ri taobh na traghad | ___ |
Gu tosdach samhach 's mi sint' 's a' chill | ___ |
