|
Oganaich uir a' chuil teudaich
|
Oh noble youth with long black hair
|
|
'S oil liom eudach a bhith dhith ort
|
I hate it that you are wanting clothing
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Chuir Roinn Eorpa clo am beart dhuit
|
Europe has put cloth in the loom for you
|
|
'S gu tig e as cha bhith sith ann
|
And until it comes out, there will be no peace
|

Chorus
:
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
O hugaibh, hug a ri hug
|
O hugaibh, hug a ri hug
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Ach, bith bithidh i fighte, cumte, luaidhte
|
But it will be woven, shaped and waulked
|
|
Mus tig buain na Feill Mhicheil
|
Before the harvest of Michaelmas comes
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Gun tig gruagaichean Chlann Raghnaill
|
The maidens of Clanranald will come
|
|
Comhlain dhaicheil nach dean diobradh
|
Handsome bands which will not desert you
|
|
|
|
|
(Sèist)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Gun tig nionagan o'n Cheapaich
|
Girls will come from Kepoch
|
|
A bheir caithris air mun sgithich
|
Who will keep a night-watch on it 'ere they tire
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Is gheibh sinn sgioba eile a Eirinn
|
And you will get another crew from Ireland
|
|
O Iarl'Antram nan steud riomhach
|
From the Earl of Antrim with his handsome horses
|
|
|
|
|
(Sèist)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Mar sin is Niallaich thar saile
|
Likewise MacNeils from across the sea
|
|
Far shruthain laidir an lionaldh
|
Over the strong currents of the flowing tide
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Na b'ionann seo 's an luadhadh dosgach
|
Let this not be like the disastrous waulking
|
|
Bha'n Cuil-lodair nuair a phill sinn
|
There was at Culloden, when we retreated
|
|
|
|
|
(Sèist)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Cuireamaid 'na eideadh Tearlach
|
Let us dress Prince Charlie in his equipment
|
|
Stracamaid an aird ar dichioll
|
Let us aim at the height of our endeavor
|
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
Hug air clo Mhic'ille Mhicheil
|
|
|
|
|
Dh'fhaodadh e bhith'n drasda umad
|
You could have been wearing the cloth now
|
|
'N a thrusgan urramach rioghail
|
As an honored royal vestment
|
|
|
|
|
(Sèist)
|
(Chorus)
|
