|
|
Ho rò mo nighean donn bhòidheach
|
Ho ro my beautiful brown-haired maiden
|
|
Hi rì mo nighean donn bhòidheach
|
Hi ri my beautiful brown-haired maiden
|
|
Mo chaileag laghach bhòidheach
|
My kind, beautiful maiden
|
|
Cha phòsainn ach thu
|
I would not marry anyone but you
|
|
|
|
|
A nighean donn nam blàth-shùl
|
Oh brown-haired maiden of the warm eyes
|
|
Gur trom a thug mi gràdh dhut
|
I loved you deeply
|
|
Tha d'iomhaigh, ghaoil, is d'àilleachd
|
Your appearance, dear, and your beauty
|
|
A ghnàth tigh'nn fom ùidh
|
Always come into my mind
|
|
|
|
|
Cha cheil mi air an t-saoghal
|
I shall not conceal from the world
|
|
Gu bheil mo mhiann 's mo ghaol ort
|
That you are my desire and that I love you
|
|
'S ged chaidh mi uat air faondradh
|
And though I strayed from you
|
|
Cha chaochail mo rùn
|
My love will not change
|
|
|
|
|
Ach nuair a thig an samhradh
|
But when the sumer comes
|
|
Bheir mise sgrìob don ghleann ud
|
I shall make a trip to that glen
|
|
'S gun tog mi leam don Ghalldachd
|
And I shall take with me to the Lowlands
|
|
Gu h-annsail am flùr
|
Lovingly, the flower
|
|
|
|
|
Ho rò mo nighean donn bhòidheach
|
Ho ro my beautiful brown-haired maiden
|
|
Hi rì mo nighean donn bhòidheach
|
Hi ri my beautiful brown-haired maiden
|
|
Mo chaileag laghach bhòidheach
|
My kind, beautiful maiden
|
|
Cha phòsainn ach thu
|
I would not marry anyone but you
|
