Sèist: Chorus (after each verse):
Hi o rò 's na ho ro èile Hi o ro 's na ho ro eile
Hi o rò 's na ho ro èile Hi o ro 's na ho ro eile
Hi o rò 's na ho ro èile Hi o ro 's na ho ro eile
Gur tu mo luaidh rim bheò cha cheil mi I will never hide the fact that you are my love
   
Nuair a bha mi'm chaileig ghòraich When I was a foolish young girl
Thug mi gaol is gradh don òigear I gave my love to the young man
Aig a bheil a'phearsa bhòidheach Of the most beautiful appearance
'S cha ghràdhaich mi rim bheò fear eile And I will never love another man
   
Do chùl dualach, cuachach, bòidheach Your beautiful ringlets and curly mane
Falt do chinn mar ite 'n lòin-duibh Your head of hair like the wing of the blackbird
Do dhà ghruaidh air dhreach nan ròsan Your two cheeks the hue of roses
Is iad fo dhealta ceò na maidne Under the misty dew of the morning
   
Ach tha mise 'n dùil 's an dòchas But it is my strong hope
Gun tig an là 's am bidh sinn còmhla The day will come when we will be together
'S ma bhios tusa dìleas dòmhsa And if you are faithful to me
Cha ghràdhaich mi rim bheò fear eile I will give my love to no other man
