| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Sèist : | Chorus (after each verse) : |
| Him ò ì og ì ò | Him ò ì og ì ò |
| A Mhòrag 's na ho rò gheallaidh | A Mhòrag 's na ho rò gheallaidh |
| Him ò ì og ì ò | Him ò ì og ì ò |
| Mhorag Bheag a'chul dualaich | Wee Morag of the curls down her back |
| Gu de dh'fhag an gruaim air t'aire | What has left you in such a bad mood? |
| 'G iomain a chruaidh-laoidh gu buaile | Leading the cow-with-calf to the field |
| 'S nach fhaic mi mo luaidh a dh'fhearaibh | And I shall not see my sweetheart, lads |
| 'G iomain a chruaidh-laoidh gu airidh | Leading the cow-with-calf to the sheiling |
| 'S nach fhaic mi mo ghradh a dh'fhearaibh | And I shall not see my darling, lads |
| Suithadaibh luadhaibh an clo | Go on and waulk the tweed-cloth |
| Gu deise phosaidh dha mo leannan | For a wedding-suit for my beloved |
| Tha te ur am buth an tailleir | There's a new one in the tailor's shop |
| 'S thig i an duigh na 'maireach dhachaidh | And she is coming home today or tomorrow |
| Chan eil mo leannan-sa ga h-iarriadh | My beloved does not want it |
| Tha te liath aige's te thartain | He has a gray one and a tartan one |
