|
|
Cha bu shealbhach dhomh d'fhaotainn |
It was not fortunate for me to get you |
|
'S e mo ghaol a' Maol Donn |
My dear, my Maol Dunn |
|
Cha bu shealbhach dhomh d'fhaotainn |
It was not fortunate for me to get you |
|
'S e mo ghaol a' Maol Donn |
My dear, my Maol Dunn |
|
Cha bu shealbhach dhomh d'fhaotainn |
It was not fortunate for me to get you |
|
'S e mo ghaol a' Maol Donn |
My dear, my Maol Dunn |
|
Ga d' iarraidh 's ga d'fhaotainn |
Searching for you and finding you |
|
'S ga d' shlaodadh a poll |
And pulling you out of a bog |
| |
|
|
Iain shomaltaich, e horò |
Laid-back John, e horo |
|
Thog iad an crodh far na lòin |
They have lifted the cattle from the meadows |
|
Iain shomaltaich, e horò |
Laid-back John, e horo |
|
Thog iad an crodh far na lòin |
They have lifted the cattle from the meadows |
| |
|
|
Thig an tòir oirnn fhìn |
The raid will come on us |
|
'S air mo làimh ni thu lorg |
And by my hand you will find them |
|
Thig an tòir oirnn fhìn |
The raid will come on us |
|
'S air mo làimh ni thu lorg |
And by my hand you will find them |
|
Thig an tòir oirnn fhìn |
The raid will come on us |

'S air mo làimh ni thu lorg |

Iain bi muigh, ò hò |
John be out, o ho |
|
Tha' n tòir mun taigh, ò hò |
The raid is about the house, o ho |
|
Thoir leat claidheamh, ò hò |
Take with you a big sword, o ho |
|
Mòr is saighead, ò hò |
And a bow and arrow, o ho |
|
Iain bi muigh, ò hò |
