ORAN EILE DO’N PHRIONNSA
One of our greatest Gaelic poets Alexander MacDonald – Alasdair MacMhaighstir – composed propaganda songs which may have inspired the Prince to come. Here he conveys his excitement at the Prince’s landing.

Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o,
Thug o-ho-ro an aill libh,
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o,
Seinn o-ho-ro an aill libh.

Och ‘sa mhaduinn’s mi dusgadh,
‘S mor mo shunnd’s mo cheol-gaire,
O’n a chuala mi ‘m Prionnsa
Thighinn do dhuthaich Chlann Ra’ill;

O’n a chuala mi ‘m Prionnsa
Thighinn do dhuthaich Chlann Ra’ill;
Grainne mullaich gach righ thu,
Slan gum pill thusa, Thearlaich.

Grainne mullaich gach righ thu,
Slan gum pill thusa, Thearlaich;
‘S ann th ‘n fhior-fhuil gun truailleadh,
Anns a ghruadh is mor-naire

‘S ann th ‘n fhior-fhuil gun truailleadh,
Anns a ghruadh is mor-naire
Mar ri barrachd na h-uaisle
‘G eirigh suas le deagh-nadur

Mar ri barrachd na h-uaisle
‘G eirigh suas le deagh-nadur,
Us nan tigeadh tu rithist
Bhiodh gach tighearn’ ‘n aite

Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o,
Thug o-ho-ro an aill libh,
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o,
Seinn o-ho-ro an aill libh.

ANOTHER SONG TO THE PRINCE
Early as I awaken
Great my joy, loud my laughter,
Since I heard that the Prince comes
To the land of Clanranald.

Since I heard that the Prince comes
To the land of Clanranald
Thou’rt the choicest of all rulers,
here’s a health to thy returning.

Thou’rt the choicest of all rulers,
Here’s a health to thy returning,
His the royal blood unmingled,
Great the modesty in his visage.

His the royal blood unmingled,
Great the modesty in his visage
With nobility overflowing,
And endowed with all good nature.

With nobility overflowing,
And endowed with all good nature.
And shouldst thou return ever
At his post would be each laird.
