Tha mulad, tha fadachd, tha cnàmh orm

'S tric a rinn mi' n cadal sàmhach
|
Often I slept peacefully with you

|
In the milking byre
|

Ciamar a nì mi dhuit an t-òran
|
How can I write a song for you, when

Ciamar a nì mi dhuit an t-aodach

How can I write a song for you

'S gun do chaoraich air na beannan?
|
When your sheep are not in the hills?
|
