Lyrics: |
English Translation: |
| |
|
|
Èisg bhig, èisg bhig |
Little fish, tiny fish |
|
Nach tu tha math air snàmh |
Aren't you the good swimmer? |
|
Gu dearbha feumaidh mise sin |
Indeed I have to be |
|
Oir bidh mi snàmh gu bràth |
For I have to swim all my life |
| |
|
|
Èisg bhig, èisg bhig |
Little fish, tiny fish |
|
Am fairich thusa fuachd? |
Don't you ever feel the cold? |
|
Cha fairich idir, 'ille chòir |
I don't feel it at all, fine sir |
|
Ged tha mi measg nan stuadh |
Though I live among the waves |
| |
|
|
Èisg bhig, èisg bhig |
Little fish, tiny fish |
|
Dè dh'ith thu an diugh? |
What have you eaten today? |
|
Lugaichean is boiteagan |
Sandworms, worms in general |
|
Is smodal anns an t-struth |
And bits and pieces from the sea current |
| |
|
|
Èisg bhig, èisg bhig |
Little fish, tiny fish |
|
Càite bheil do dhachaigh? |
Where is your home? |
|
Tha mo dhachaigh anns a'chuan |
My home is in the sea |
|
Mìle mach o'n chladach |
A mile out from the shore |
