Nochd mo chumha hu ru |
My grief tonight hu ru |

Iosal cumhang hu ru |
Low and narrow hu ru |

Gun sgrath dhion air o o hol ill eo |
No roof of turf o o hol ill eo |
Gun lub tughaidh hu ru |
No thatch entwined hu ru |

But hillside water o o hol ill eo |
Sios 'na shruth leis hu ru |
Like a running stream hu ru |

Nan each dhriumfhionn hu ru |
With white-maned horses hu ru |
