Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |
Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |

The best helmsman in a storm |

Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
|
Bheireadh tu i slàn gu cala |
You would bring her safely to harbor |

Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
|
Fhad 's a mhaireadh stadh na tarruinn |
As long as stays and halyards last |
|
Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |
Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |

Fhad 's a mhaireadh stadh na tarruinn |
As long as stays and halyards last |

Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
|
Na buill chainbe ri cruinn gheala |
Billowing canvas holds to the masts |
|
Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |
Laoi leo horò, trom orra chò, faral a leò |

Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
Rol hol ill leó, rol hol ill leó |
|
Na giuthas os cionn na mara |
And fir-timbers are above the water |
|
