A Mhic Iain 'Ic Sheumais |
Son of Iain, son of Seumas |
Tha do sgeul air m'aire |
News of you weighs heavy |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Latha Blar a' Cheithe |
The Day of the Battle of the Ceith |
Bha feum air mo leanamh |
My nursling was needed |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
|
|
Latha Blar a' Cheithe |
The Day of the Battle of the Ceith |
Bha feum air mo leanamh |
My nursling was needed |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Latha Blar na Feitheadh |
The Day of the Battle of the Runnel |
Bha do leine na ballan |
Your shirt was blotted |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
|
|
Latha Blar na Feitheadh |
The Day of the Battle of the Runnel |
Bha do leine na ballan |
Your shirt was blotted |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Bha fuil do chuim chubhraidh |
The blood of your sweet bosom |
A drudhadh ro'n anart |
Was soaking through the linen |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
|
|
Bha fuil do chuim chubhraidh |
The blood of your sweet bosom |
A drudhadh ro'n anart |
Was soaking through the linen |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Air fa ra ra lo, air fa ra ra lo |
Bha fuil do chuirp uasail |
The blood of your noble body |
Air uachdair gach fearainn |
On the surface of the country |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
A hi eile fe o hiri si bho horo hu o |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
Fal eile bho hiri si bho ho fal eile bho |
