Lyrics: English Translation:
   
Tha mo rùn air a' ghille I love the lad
'Se mo dhùrachd gun tig thu ___
'S mi gu siubhladh leat am fireach I would travel the moorland with you
Fo shileadh nam fuar bheann Under the drip of the cold mountains
   
Oidhche shamhraidh dhomh 's mi'm ònar Alone on a summer night
Air mo ghaol sa ni mì òran ___
'S truagh a rìgh, nach robh mi pòsd It's a pity I wasn't married
Aig òigear a' chùil dualaich To the youth with the curled hair
   
O gur e mo cheist an t-òigear ___
Fear chùil duinn 's an leadain bhòidhich And lovely tresses is my darling
'S mi gu siubhladh leat thar m'eòlais I would fare with you to unknown places
Ged tha'n còta ruadh ort Even though you wear the redcoat
   
Ged tha blàth na bric 'ad aodann Although your face is scarred by smallpox
Cha do lughdaich siod mo ghaol ort It didn't lessen my love for you
'S mi gu siubhladh leat an saogh'l I would travel the world with you
Na'n saoilinn fhein do bhuannachd If I thought I could win you over
   
Tha an Nollaig tighinn as ùr oirnn ___
Ged a tha gur beag mo shùrd rith' ___
Am fear nach fhàgadh mi sa chùil ___
Air chùl nan garbh thonn uaine ___
   
Tha mo rùn air a' ghille I love the lad
'Se mo dhùrachd gun tig thu ___
'S mi gu siubhladh leat am fireach I would travel the moorland with you
Fo shileadh nam fuar bheann Under the drip of the cold mountains
