|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam buadh
|
Wonderful Inverasdale
|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam buadh
|
Wonderful Inverasdale
|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam buadh
|
Wonderful Inverasdale
|
|
Cumaibh suas Inbhir Àsdal
|
Exault Inverasdale
|
|
San dùthaich mun cuairt
|
And its surrounding district
|
|
|
|
|
Ho-rò, chan eil àite
|
Horo, there is no place
|
|
San robh mise riamh
|
I have ever visited
|
|
Ged gheobhainn mo roghainn
|
Although I might have any choice
|
|
Dhe gach àit'n ear no'n iar
|
East or west
|
|
Am b'ait leam bhi fuireach
|
In which I would prefer to live
|
|
'S am b'fheàrr leam bhi triall
|
And to which I would travel
|
|
'S mur faighinn mo dhachaidh ann
|
If I could not live there
|
|
'S mise bitheadh ciar
|
I would feel bereft
|
|
|
|
|
'S a' mhonadh tha sgaoilte
|
On the hill
|
|
Le aonadh gu leòr
|
Generous heathland spreads
|
|
Far 'n d'shaothraich ar sìnnsir
|
Forth where our forebears labored
|
|
Le dìcheall son lòn
|
Diligently for their living
|
|
Toirt ruaig air a' Bhuachaill
|
Hunting on the Buachaill
|
|
'S iad suaimhneach gun stòr
|
They lived happily without riches
|
|
A' faighinn na bha dhith orr'
|
Getting what sufficed
|
|
Cha robh sùil ac' ri còrr
|
They had no desire for more
|
|
|
|
|
Agus latha 'n trusaidh
|
On gathering day
|
|
Bidh drip anns an àit'
|
Everywhere is bustling
|
|
Gach fear mach sa' mhadainn
|
As each man is out early in the morning
|
|
Le bhata na laimh
|
Staff in his hand
|
|
Le bhag air a ghualainn
|
Bag on his back
|
|
Sa chù mu a shàil
|
With his dog at his heel
|
|
Theid gach beathach air monadh
|
Every animal on the hill
|
|
A thrusadh gun dàil
|
Is herded in without delay
|
|
|
|
|
'S a gheamhradh bidh uisg'
|
In winter, rain
|
|
Gaoth is fuachd ann ma seach
|
Wind and cold alternate with each other
|
|
Is uairean bidh reothadh
|
Sometimes with frost
|
|
Is uairean bidh sneachd
|
And snow
|
|
Bidh teine math mòine
|
A good peat fire
|
|
Cur blàths anns gach teach
|
Heats every homestead
|
|
Nochdadh coibhneas is aoigh anns
|
In which kindness and hospitality are evident
|
|
Gach aon ac' mar chleachd
|
AS was the custom
|
|
|
|
|
Is ged a bhiodh connspaid
|
And although disputes
|
|
Aig cuid an aghaidh chàich
|
May arise
|
|
Cha mhair e ach sealan
|
They do not persist
|
|
'S mar as giorra 's e 's fhearr
|
The shorter, the better
|
|
Ach tha e cho soillear
|
But it is as clear
|
|
Ri àrd mheadhan latha
|
As high midday
|
|
Gur e sìth agus rian
|
That peace, order
|
|
Agus nàbhachd as fhearr
|
And neighborliness are best
|
|
|
|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam buadh
|
Wonderful Inverasdale
|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|

Exault Inverasdale
|
|
San dùthaich mun cuairt
|
And its surrounding district
|
|
|
|
|
An uair thig thu timcheall
|
When you come 'round
|
|
Aig Sròin na Luirge Ruaidh
|
Sròin na Luirge Ruaidh
|
|
'S a sheallas tu nuas
|
And look down
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam Buadh
|
On glorious Inverasdale
|
|
Air latha breagha samhradh
|
On a beautiful summer day
|
|
'S a' ghrian 's èirigh suas
|
At sunrise
|
|
Chi thu sealladh cho àlainn
|
You will see a view
|
|
'S a th' air an taobh tuath
|
Unsurpassed in the north
|
|
|
|
|
Seinnibh le fonn
|
Sing tunefully of
|
|
Inbhir Àsdal nam buadh
|
Wonderful Inverasdale
