|
|
|
|
Tha na h-uain air an tulaich
|
The lambs on the hillside
|
|
A' mireag san fhraoch
|
Sport in the heather
|
|
Tha na caorainn a fàs
|
Where the berries grow
|
|
Agus blàth air gach flùr
|
And blossoms are on every flower
|
|
Tha na caorainn a fàs
|
Where the berries grow
|
|
Agus blàth air gach flùr
|
And blossoms are on every flower
|
|
'S tha an luingeas
|
And the ships
|
|
A' seòladh nan cuantan
|
Are sailing in the ocean
|
|
|
|
|
Bean na bainnse 's a cuideachd
|
The bride and her party
|
|
Don eaglais a' falbh
|
Going to the church
|
|
Ise marcachd air thoiseach
|
She riding ahead
|
|
'S a cruth mar an dealbh
|
As pretty as a picture
|
|
Agus gille ga leantainn
|
And a lad following her
|
|
Gur trom airsneulach falbh
|
Heavy-hearted and dumb
|
|
'S a ghràidh
|
For his love
|
|
Dol a phòsadh fear eile
|
Is going to marry another
|
|
|
|
|
Aig an altair na seasamh
|
Standing at the altar
|
|
'S a fear-pòsda ri taobh
|
With her groom by her side
|
|
Cur an fhàinne mu meòir
|
Putting the ring on her finger
|
|
'S a' toirt bòidean a ghaoil
|
And making vows of love
|
|
Thuirt an gill' air a shocair
|
The lad said quietly
|
|
"Mo ghràdh dhut chan aom
|
"My love for you will never weaken
|
|
Ged a tha thu
|
Even though you are
|
|
Nis pòsd' aig fear eile"
|
Now married to another"
|
|
|
|
|
"Cladhaich m'uaigh," thuirt an gille
|
"Dig a grave," said the lad
|
|
"Far am faigh mise tàmh
|
"Where I can get some peace
|
|
Cuir na fliùran oirr' thairis
|
Plant flowers around it
|
|
'S bheir an t-earrach oirr' fàs
|
And spring will make them grow
|
|
Agus sìn mi fon ghlasraich
|
And lay me under the earth
|
|
Far an laigh mi gu bràth
|
Where I will lie forever
|
|
Cha chuir nì
|
Nothing but death
|
|
Ach am bàs i às m'aire"
|
Will banish her from my mind"
|
|
|
|
|
Tha na h-uain air an tulaich
|
The lambs on the hillside
|
|
A' mireag san fhraoch
|
Sport in the heather
|
|
Tha na caorainn a fàs
|
Where the berries grow
|
|
Agus blàth air gach flùr
|
And blossoms are on every flower
|
|
Tha na caorainn a fàs
|
Where the berries grow
|
|
Agus blàth air gach flùr
|
And blossoms are on every flower
|
|
'S tha an luingeas
|
And the ships
|
|
A' seòladh nan cuantan
|
Are sailing in the ocean
|
|
|
|
|
Tha na h-uain air an tulaich
|
The lambs on the hillside
|
|
A' mireag san fhraoch
