Chorus (after each verse): |
'S na hu o ho Chaluim bhain |
Oh fair Calum |
Fallain gum bu thu |
Healthy may you be |
'S na hu o ho Chaluim bhain |
Oh fair Calum |
|
|
O Chaluim, e Chaluim |
Oh Calum, oh Calum |
Slan fallain gun till thu |
Whole, healthy, on your return |
|
|
O Chaluim bhain Mhic Ruaraidh |
Oh fair Calum, son of Roderick |
'S mor a luaidh thug mi-fhein dhuit |
Great is the love that I gave you |
|
|
O Chaluim bhain MhicCoinnich |
Oh fair Calum MacKenzie |
Air do shloinneadh cha bhi mi |
Your surname will not be mine |
|
|
'S i dol timcheall an Rubha |
She is coming 'round the headland |
'S e do chriutha nach diobradh |
With your crew that wouldn't falter |
|
|
Tighinn timcheall na Cabaig |
Coming 'round the Cabag |
Siuil ard ri cruinn dhireach |
High sails on straight masts |
|
|
'S tu gu stiuireadh i tioram |
You would keep her dry |
'S do chuid ghillean gu h-iosal |
And your own men below |
