|
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
Seinn o hò rò leannainn |
Sing o ho ro darling |
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
|
|
Gur e mise tha brònach |
Sorrowful am I |
Dh'fhalbh Dòmhnall on a bhaile |
That Donald has left the town |
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
|
|
Gur e minic a bha sinn |
We were often |
Air àirigh a chruidh bhainne |
At the shieling of the milking cattle |
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
|
|
Bu leabaidh dhuinn luachair |
Our bed was rushes |
'S bu chluasag dhuinn cannach |
Our pillow was bog cotton |
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
|
|
Seinn o hò rò leannainn |
Sing o ho ro darling |
Seinn o hò rò seinn |
Sing o ho ro sing |
