Chorus (after each verse): |
|
Teann a nall 's thoir dhomh do làmh |
Come, let's wander hand in hand |
|
Teann a nall 's thoir dhomh do làmh |
Come, let's wander hand in hand |
|
Teann a nall 's thoir dhomh do làmh |
Come, let's wander hand in hand |
|
Is bheir mi sgrìob do dh'Uidhist leat |
And take a trip to Uist with me |
| |
|
|
Tha'm feasgar ciùin 's na siantan blàth |
The evening's calm, the weather warm |
|
Tha 'ghrian san iar mar mheall de'n òr |
The western sun is an orb of gold |
|
Tha'n cuan mar sgàthan gorm gun sgleò |
The sea is a mirror, clear and blue |
|
'S bu mhòr mo mhiann bhith'n dh'Uidhist leat |
I long to be in Uist with you |
| |
|
|
Tha sìth air aghaidh beinn is raon |
There's peace across the moors and glens |
|
Tha fàileadh cùbhraidh thar am fhraoich |
And sweetly smell the heather bens |
|
Tha neòinean bhòidheach fàs gach taobh |
Fair are the flowers, bright their hue |
|
'S bu mhòr mo mhiann bhi'n Uidhist leat |
I long to be in Uist with you |
| |
|
|
Is dìomhain dhuinne bhith cho faoin |
How can we be such silly fools |
|
A'siubhal saoghail ruith gach maoin |
To roam the world in search of fame? |
|
Tha beatha 's slàint an tìr mo ghaoil |
There's health and wealth in the isle I love |
|
'S gun tèid mi thàmh do dh'Uidhist leat |
And I shall stay in Uist with you |
