Chorus: |
I hiùraibh, i hiùraibh |
I hiùraibh, i hiùraibh |
I hiùraibh o gheallaidh |
I hiùraibh o gheallaidh |
I hiùraibh ó éile |
I hiùraibh ó éile |
Rinn thu eudail mo mhealladh |
You, my beloved, deceived me |
|
|
Sann an toiseach a' bhàta |
It's at the prow of the boat |
Tha mo ghràdh dha na fearaibh |
That my beloved of men is |
Sùil chorrach ghorm liònta |
Eyes passionate blue and satiated |
Gruaidh mhìn-dhearg, beul tana |
Cheeks soft-red, slim mouth |
|
|
(Sèist) |
(Chorus) |
|
|
Thoir an t-soraidh seo bhuamsa |
Bear this greeting from me |
Gu Sliabh nan Tri Seallaidh |
To the Plain of the Three Visions |
Chun an òganaich chiataich |
To the elegant young man |
Tha 'n iar air na Gallaibh |
Who is west of the Lowlands |
|
|
Gura mis' tha gu brònach |
How dejected I am |
'S mo shùilean sìor lasadh |
And my eyes verily shining |
Ged nach fhaic mi ri m' bheò thu |
Although I may not see you in my lifetime |
Guma slàn thig thu dhachaigh |
May you return home safely |
|
|
(Sèist) |
(Chorus) |
