|
Seo a bhliadhna dh'fhàg mi dubhach |
This is the year that left me depressed |
|
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
|
Chaill mi mo bhràthair 's mo phiuthar |
I lost my brother and my sister |
|
Hì ho ro hì, air fàireal il ò |
Hi ho ro hi, air faireal il o |
| |
|
|
Chaill mi mo bhràthair 's mo phiuthar |
I lost my brother and my sister |
|
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
|
Chan e sin a tha mi cumha |
That is not what I lament |
|
Hì ho ro hì, air fàireal il ò |
Hi ho ro hi, air faireal il o |
| |
|
|
Chan e sin a tha mi cumha |
That is not what I lament |
|
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
|
Ach òigear òg an òir-fhuilt bhuidhe |
But the young man of the golden hair |
|
Hì ho ro hì, air fàireal il ò |
Hi ho ro hi, air faireal il o |
| |
|
|
Ach òigear òg an òir-fhuilt bhuidhe |
But the young man of the golden hair |
|
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
|
Bhith'n ciste chaoil ri taobh a'bhalla |
To be in the narrow coffin by the wall |
|
Hì ho ro hì, air fàireal il ò |
Hi ho ro hi, air faireal il o |
| |
|
|
Bhith'n ciste chaoil ri taobh a'bhalla |
To be in the narrow coffin by the wall |
|
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
Hiurabhi hiurabhi, hi ho ro ho |
|
Saor' ga dùnadh 's ùird 'ga barradh |
With the carpenter closing it and the hammer sealing it |
|
Hì ho ro hì, air fàireal il ò |
Hi ho ro hi, air faireal il o |
