Ho Ro Mo Nighean Donn Bhoidheach (Nut Brown Maiden

A Charming love song to a highland maiden in which her lover vows

to return and reclaim ber to share his life of exile in the lowlands.

Seisd (Chorus)

Ho ro, mo nigh'n donn bhoidheach,

Hi ri, mo nigh'n donn bhoidhech

Mo chaileag laghach, bhoidheach,

Cha phos mi ach tu

A Pheigi dhonn nam bla h-shul

Gur trom a thug mi gradh dhuit

Tha d'iomhaigh ghaoil a's d'ailleachd

A ghna h tigh'n fo m'uidh

Chorus

'S ann tha mo ru's na beanntaibh,

Far bheil mo ribhinn ghreannar

Mar ros am fasach Shamhraidh

An gleann fad'o shuil.

Chorus

Ach 'n uair a thig an Samradh

Bheir mise sgriob do 'n ghleann ud

'S gun tog mi leam do 'n Ghaildachd

Gu h-annsail am flur

Chorus

Tramp Miner

I am a tramp miner

I've been for some time now

I live without light of the day

In the black underground, that's

where I'll be found

Biding my time away

Oh working my life away

From here out to Timmins

I've loved all your women

In the taverns I drank down my pay

But I'd do it again even

though it's a sin

For it's better that driving the raise

If you've done it you'd know what I say

So I'll roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the time and the wind

Then I'll find my way back home again

Homesickness, heartbreak and black lung

Among these men run rampant

As they're rockin' n' rollin'

High ballin' this country today

I've been a tramp miner for such a long time now

I've lived without light of the day

In a hole in the ground

They'll lower me down

That'll be my final pay

For working my life away

So I'll roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the time and the wind

Then I'll find my way back home again

Roll, roll with the wind

So I'll roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the wind

Roll, roll with the time and the wind

Then I'll find my way back home again

Carry me back home again
