Moch 'sa mhaduinn 's mi 'g čirigh As I rise early in the morning
   
Chi mi 'n eilid sa cčile I see the hind and her mate
   
'S iad a'mire ri chčile They are playing happily together
   
A righ nach buidhe dhaibh pčin sin Oh God, aren't they the lucky ones
   
Chan ionnan 's mar dh'čirich It is not like this
   
Dhomh 's do dh'Iain Mac Sheaumais For me and Iain, son of James
   
Chuir iad thusa Ghleann Gčige They sent you to the glen of the branches
   
A bhuachailleachd sprčidhe To herd cattle
   
Agus mis' a Dhun Čideann And me to Edinburgh
   
A dh'ionnsachadh Beurla To learn English
   
Agus Fraingis is Grčigis And French and Greek
