|
|
|
Soraidh leis an àit'
|
Farewell to the place
|
|
An d' fhuair mi m' àrach òg
|
Where I was reared when young
|
|
Eilean nam beann àrda
|
Island of the high bens
|
|
Far an tàmh an ceò
|
Capped where the mist rests
|
|
Air a moch a dh' èireas
|
On which rises early
|
|
Grian nan speur fo ròs
|
The rose-tinted sun in the sky
|
|
A' fuadach neul na h-oidhche
|
Dispelling the nightly bank
|
|
Soillseachadh an Stòrr
|
And lighting the Old Man of Storr
|
|
|
|
|
Flòdagaraidh sgiamhach
|
___
|
|
Càit' eil d'fhiach de ghrunnd?
|
___
|
|
'S ainmeil an crodh-dàra
|
___
|
|
A dh'àraicheadh air d'fhonn
|
___
|
|
Is nuair a thig an oiteag
|
___
|
|
Bho Lochlann oirnn a-nall
|
___
|
|
Sèideadh air Sròin Bhaornaill
|
___
|
|
'S cùbhraidh gaoth do bheann
|
___
|
|
|
|
|
Seallaidhean bu bhrèagha
|
Sights more beautiful
|
|
Riamh chan fhaca sùil
|
The eye could never see
|
|
Spréidh amach 'gam feurach
|
Cattle out grazing
|
|
Madainn ghrianach chiùin
|
On a peaceful, sunny morning
|
|
'N uiseag air a sgiath
|
The lark high on the wing
|
|
Seinn gum fhiamh a' chiùil
|
Singing her song with confidence
|
|
'S an ceò mu cheann Beinn Tianabhaig
|
And the mist swirling around Ben Tianabhaig
|
|
Is an sliabh fo dhrùchd
|
With the mountain covered in dew
|
|
|
|
|
Soraidh leis an àit'
|
Farewell to the place
|
|
An d' fhuair mi m' àrach òg
|
Where I was reared when young
|
|
Eilean nam beann àrda
|
Island of the high bens
|
|
Far an tàmh an ceò
|
Capped where the mist rests
|
|
Air a moch a dh' èireas
|
On which rises early
|
|
Grian nan speur fo ròs
|
The rose-tinted sun in the sky
|
|
A' fuadach neul na h-oidhche
|
Dispelling the nightly bank
|
|
Soillseachadh an Stòrr
|
And lighting the Old Man of Storr
|
