Mathair uisge 'n tobair fhìoruisg' Cainnt ar sinnsir brigh na loinn; 'S faochadh tlàth o ànradh m'inntinn, 'Nuiar bheir rann na glinn a'm chuimhn'
Astar cuain cha dean ar sgaradh 'S dùrachd daimh am bannaibh toinnt' Gleidgh an t-àgh na dh'fhàg a bheannachd Oidhche mhath leibh, beannachd leibh
Thuit ar crann air saoghal carach 'S coma sud, tha 'mhaitheas leinn Bidh sinn beò an dòchas ra-mhath Oidhche mhath leibh, beannachd leibh
[ Connie Dover Lyrics are found on www.dapslyrics.com ] Translation from Scots Gaelic to English Farewell to you and goodnight to you Goodnight to you, and blessings go with you Wishing that good health be yours always Goodnight to you, and blessings go with you
The goodness of water drawn from the well of pure water That is the language of our ancestors, the essence of our joy A gentle soothing of the mind's distress When a verse reminds me of the glens
The width of an ocean will not separate us And our good wishes will go to those Who are connected to us with enduring ties Keep in good fortune those who've made their farewells Goodnight to you and blessings go with you
Our lot has fallen in a deceiving world But in spite of that, virtue will be with us We will live in constant hope Goodnight to you and blessings go with you
