| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Tha mo shealgair na shineadh | My hunter lies stretched |
| Na shineadh, na shineadh | Stretched, stretched |
| Tha mo shealgair na shineadh | My hunter lies stretched |
| Anns an fhrith gun tigh'nn dhachaidh | On the moorland without coming home |
| Tha mo shealgair gun eirigh | My hunter lies without rising |
| Gun eirigh, gun eirigh | Without rising, without rising |
| Tha mo shealgair gun eirigh | My hunter lies without rising |
| 'S tha na feidh air an leacainn | And the deer are on the slopes |
| Tha na feidh am Braigh Uige | The deer are on Uig Brae |
| 'M Braigh Uige, 'm Braigh Uige | On Uig Brae, on Uig Brae |
| Tha na feidh am Braigh Uige | The deer are on Uig Brae |
| 'S e mo dhiubhail mar thachair | What happened is my ruin |
| Tha mo crodh air na lointean | My cattle are on the meadow |
| Na lointean, na lointean | On the meadow, on the meadow |
| Tha mo crodh air na lointean | My cattle are on the meadow |
| 'S na laoigh oga mu'n casan | And their young calves at their feet |
| Iad gun togail ri aonaich | Without being herded to the hill |
| Ri aonaich, ri aonaich | To the hill, to the hill |
| Iad gun togail ri aonaich | Without being herded to the hill |
| Fireach fraoich agus glacaibh | Heathery moor and hollow |
| Gur fuar Lag na h-airidh | Cold is the Hollow of the Sheiling |
| Na h-airidh, na h-airidh | The Sheiling, the Sheiling |
| Gur fuar Lag na h-airidh | Cold is the Hollow of the Sheiling |
| 'S tha mo ghradh fo na leacaibh | And my love lies beneath the slabs |
| Hill an o 's na hi ill u o... | Hill an o 's na hi ill u o... |
