'S iomadh rud tha dhìth orm There are many things I would need
A dh'fheumainn fhìn mu'n dèanainn banais Before I arranged a wedding
'S iomadh rud tha dhìth orm There are many things I would need
A dh'fheumainn fhìn mum pòsainn Before I married
'S iomadh rud tha dhìth orm There are many things I would need
A dh'fheumainn fhìn mu'n dèanainn banais Before I arranged a wedding
'S iomadh rud tha dhìth orm There are many things I would need
A dh'fheumainn fhìn mum pòsainn Before I married
