'N uair bha mi na mo mhaighdinn |
When I was a maiden lass |
'Se saighdear bu docha leam |
I liked the soldier laddie |
'N uair bha mi na mo mhaighdinn |
When I was a maiden lass |
'Se saighdear a b'fheārr leam |
I loved the soldier boy |

When I was a maiden lass |
'Se saighdear bu docha leam |
I liked the soldier laddie |
'N uair bha mi na mo mhaighdinn |
When I was a maiden lass |
'Se saighdear a b'fheārr leam |
I loved the soldier boy |

B'fheārr mar a bha mi 'n uiridh |
Wasn't I the happy lass last year |
Na mar tha mi 'm bliadhna |
Compared to now |
B'fheārr mar a bha mi 'n uiridh |
Wasn't I the happy lass last year |
Fir a'tighinn 'gam iarraidh |
Because the lads were coming to court me |
