Nighean bhuidh' ruadh
| Nighean bhuidh' ruadh bh'aig Dòmhnall Ruadh pìobair | The russet-haired daughter of Donald Ruadh the piper |
| Rachadh i bhàl nam faigheadh i fídhleir | Would attend a ball if she could catch the fiddler's eye |
| Nighean bhuidh' ruadh bh'aig Dòmhnall Ruadh pìobair | The russet-haired daughter of Donald Ruadh the piper |
| Dhéanadh i sìth nam faigheadh i dràm | Would be quite peace-loving provided she was given a dram |
