• An t-Eilean Mu Thuath

An t-eilean mu thuath, an iomull a' chuain
An t-eilean 's an d'fhuair mi m'àrach
Far an d'fhuair mi 's mi òg bainne fìorghlan ri òl
'S bha m'anam tigh'nn beò 's a' fàs leis

An t-eilean a tuath, an t-eilean tha fuar
'Se Leódhas bho thuath mo ghràidh e
Far nach cluinn mi ri m'bheò bhi sealg no bhi 'g òl
No làmhadh no òrd air an t-Sàbaid

Nach mis' tha gu truagh gu tùrsach 's fo ghruaim
Bho chuir mi ri tuath mo chùlaibh
Nuair choisich i dìan chuir i curs' oirre 'n iar
'S thug dorchadas dhìomsa Mùirneag

Chan eil math domh no stàth bhi tuiream 's a' chàs
Chan aithreachas tràth a th'ann domh
Chan urrainn mi snàmh gu cuideachd mo ghràidh
No coiseachd air tràigh do Leódhas

An t-eilean mu thuath, an iomull a' chuain
An t-eilean 's an d'fhuair mi m'àrach
Far an d'fhuair mi 's mi òg bainne fìorghlan ri òl
'S bha m'anam tigh'nn beò 's a' fàs leis

The isle to the north, by the edge of the ocean
The isle where I was brought up
Where I got when young the purest milk to drink
And my soul came alive and grew with it

The isle to the north, the island that's cold
It is Lewis, the isle of my love
Where I'll never hear hunting or drinking
Or chopping or hammering on the Sabbath

I am very sad, depressed and poor
Since I turned my back on the north
When the boat got underway she set a course for the west
And darkness swallowed up the hill of Muirneag

It won't do me any good to lament my state
My feeling of remorse is not new to me
I can't swim across to the people of my affections
Or walk on the shore of Lewis

The isle to the north, by the edge of the ocean
The isle where I was brought up
Where I got when young the purest milk to drink
And my soul came alive and grew with it
