'Nuair a théid mi chon na féill

Bidh a' chailleach as mo dhéidh

Casadaich am beul a cléibh

'S fheudar dhomb bhith suidhe rithe

'S fheudar dhomb bhith suidhe, suidhe

'S fheudar dhomb bhith suidhe rithe

'S fheudar dhomb bhith suidhe, suidhe

'S fheudar dhomb bhith suidhe rithe

Thig mi dhachaidh on bhuain

Bhithinn gu h-airsnealach fuar

Gheibhinn dhan a' phròs fhuar

Làn na coiseduibhe dheth

Làn na coiseduibhe, duibhe

Làn na coiseduibhe dheth

Làn na coiseduibhe, duibhe

Làn na coiseduibhe dheth

Thiginn dachaidh on chrann

Bhithinn gu h-airsnealach fann

Chithinn a' rud nach biodh ann

Sambla 's I 'na suidhe rium

Sambla 's I 'na suidhe, suidhe

Sambla 's I 'na suidhe rium

Sambla 's I 'na suidhe, suidhe

Sambla 's I 'na suidhe rium

Thiginn dachaidh on nì

Bhithinn gu h-airsnealach sgìth

Dheaghainn a laighe liom fhin

Shìn I 'cnamhan dubha rium

Shìn I 'cnamhan dubha, dubha

Shìn I 'cnamhan dubha rium

Shìn I 'cnamhan dubha, dubha

Shìn I 'cnamhan dubha rium

Mìle beannachd aig an eug

'S iomadh fear dhan d' rinn e feum

Thug e leis mo chailleach fhéin

'S éibhinn liom gun d' shiubhail I

'S éibhinn liom gun d' shiubhail, shiubhail

'S éibhinn liom gun d' shiubhail I

'S éibhinn liom gun d' shiubhail, shiubhail

'S éibhinn liom gun d' shiubhail I...
