| Credits : | Norma MacDougal; lyrics by John Angus MacLeod; arranged by Allan Henderson & Rachel Walker |
| Appears On : | Bràighe Loch Iall |
| Language : | Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) |
| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Rinn ni dhomh innse nach biodh tu dìleas | I suspected you were going to betray me |
| Bhuail e m' inntinn iomadach uair | It struck my thoughts many times |
| A d' bhriathran mìlseachd mheall mo chrìdhsa | Your honeyed words deceived my heart |
| A dh'andeoin ditheadh mo chin | Despite my head telling me to condemn |
| Sèist : | Chorus (after each verse) : |
| An dean thu m' fhàgail tràth air mhadainn | Will you desert me in the early morning |
| Mar nì faileas oidhche ri boillsgeadh grèin? | As the shadow of night is dispelled by a flash of sunlight? |
| Is ceann an làtha seo 'm bì mi cràiteach | And at the end of the day will I be broken-hearted |
| Gun ghaol, gun ghàire, leam fhèin? | Without love, without laughter, all alone? |
| Ged fhuair sinn eòlas air iomadach sòlas | Although we got to know many aspects of joy |
| Ged bh' ar stòras loma làn | Although our cup was full |
| Cha b' e gu leòr leat blàs mo phògan | The taste of my kisses did not satisfy you |
| Chaidh thu 'n tòir air cuid chàich | You went in pursuit of what belonged to others |
| Dè ceann iùil dhuit is càit an stiùir thu? | What is your destination and where will you go? |
| Bheil do dhùils' air àite taimh? | Do you hope for a restful haven? |
| Ged tha do chùl rium 's deòir am shùilean | Although you have turned from me and I am weeping |
| Riut bi m' dhùrachd ri m' bheò | I will love you as long as I live |
| Gun ghaol, gun ghàire, leam fhèin? | Without love, without laughter, all alone? |
