Tog A’ Bhratach

• Chunnaic mi a’ bhìrlinn cogaidh
• Aig làn àrd a’ mhadainn
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a’ bhratach!
• Le saidh-thòisich pròiseil
• Is na crainn àrda dìreach,
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a’ bhratach!
• Na bi a’ gul mo leannan,
• Ò mo chridhe na bi brònach,
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a’ bhratach!
• Ach faigh an sgiath agam
• Is na sleaghan luath ‘s biorach,
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a’ bhratach!
• Tillidh mi dhachaigh le buaidh,
• Tillidh mi le spùill!
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a´ bhratach!
• Mar sin tog a’ bhratach,
• Bidh an t-eagal air an namhaid!
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Tog a’ bhratach!

Raise The Banner!

• I saw the war galley
• On the morning tide
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Raise the banner!
• With proud prow
• And tall masts straight,
• Horo, hili oro,
• Hilio Raise the banner!
• Don’t weep, my sweetheart,
• Oh my heart, don’t be sad.
• But fetch my shield
• And the spears swift and sharp.
• I will return home with booty,
• I will return with spoils.
• Therefore raise the banner,
• Let the enemy know fear!

Tha Mi Sgìth

• Tha mi sgìth, ‘s mi leam fhìn
• Buain na rainich, buain na rainich,
• Tha mi sgìth, ‘s mi leam fhìn,
• Buain na rainich daonnan!
• Cùl an tomain, bràigh an tomain,
• Cùl an tomain bhòidheach,
• Cùl an tomain, bràigh an tomain,
• H-uile là nam ònar!
• ‘S tric a bha mi fhìn ‘s mo leannan
• Anns a’ ghleannan cheòthar
• ‘G èisteach còisir bhinn an doire
• Seinn sa choille dhòmhail.
• Anns an t-sìthean, o, gur sgìth mi
• ‘S tric mo chridhe ga leònadh,
• Nuair bhios càch a’ seinn nan luinneag
• Cha dèan mis’ ach crònan!

I Am Tired

• I’m tired, and I’m alone,
• Cutting the bracken, cutting the bracken,
• I’m tired, and I’m alone,
• Forever cutting bracken.
• Behind the knoll, atop the knoll,
• Behind the beautiful knoll,
• Behind the knoll, atop the knoll,
• Every day alone.
• Often would my love and I
• Be in the misty glens
• Listening to the sweet choir of the grove
• Singing in the verdant woods.
• In the fairy mound, oh, I will be tired
• And often would my heart be wounded.
• When others sing their songs
• I do nothing but drone.

A’ Bhìrlinn Bharrach

• Latha dhomh, ‘s mi ‘m beinn a’ cheathaich

• Air fal al a leo, ro ho bhi o!
• Hoireann is horo, bhi oho,
• Hi ri, o huo, bha o hug o!
• Gun deach bàta Chlionn Nìll seachad
• Mach bho dhùthaich Mhic Gill-Eathain
• Steach gu Ciosamul an aighir
• Far am faight’ a’ chuirm ri gabhail

The Barra Galley

• One day I was on the misty mountain
• Air fal al a leo, ro ho vi o!

• Clan Neil’s boat went by
• Out of MacLean lands
• To Kishmul the joyous
• Where the feasting is taken.

Oh see, I see the great mountains

• Oh see, I see the lofty mountains
• Oh see, I see the corries
• I see the crags under the mist.

• I see there plains, fair and fertile,
• I see the deer on the floor of the corries,
• Hidden by a garment of mist!
