Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
|
|
Dh'čirich mi moch madainn Chčitein |
I arose early one May morning |
|
|
Sčist: |
Chorus (after each verse): |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
|
|
Chuala mise sgeul bha čibhinn |
I heard news which gladdened me |
|
|
Gun robh gaisgich dheas air čirigh |
That the able heroes had risen |
|
|
A chur beatha 'n cainnt na Fčinne |
To put spirit in the language of the Feinne |
|
|
Chaidh iad cruinn a ceann a chčile |
They had gathered together |
|
|
Thuirt iad gu robh chąnan feumail |
Declaring the language of use |
|
|
Anns an sgoil cho math ri Beurla |
In the schools as well as English |
|
|
Siud an duine a rinn feum dhuinn |
Now there was a man |
|
|
Siud an duine a rinn feum dhuinn |
Now there was a man |

Friseal Mac an Tņisich gleusta |
Wise Fraser MacIntosh |
|
|
Togaibh luinneag agus sčist dha |
Sing songs and tunes for him |
|
|
Ąrdaichear e gus na speuran |
Let him be praised to the heavens |
|
|
Leis na Gąidheil 's gach ąite 'n tčid e |
By the Gaels wherever he goes |
|
|
Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Hiłraibh o 's na hņro čile |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
Faill il o hill u ill o |
