Caidil a luaidh
Fo chobhair nan stuadh
Air bodha na suaih
‘S do bhruadar ‘s a’ cheòban
Caidil a luaidh
Fo chobnair nan stuadh
Air bodha na suain
‘S do bhruad -ar ‘sa’ cheò ban.

Caidil a ghraidh
O caidil mu thràth
Is t’athair air bhàigh
Is fadal mo phòig air
Caidil a ghraidh
O caidil mu thràth
Is t’athair air bhàigh
Is fadal mo phòig air

Eala rid’ thaobh
Is roin os do chionn
Lacha Mhoire ‘sa’ chaol
‘S cha’n fhaobar mo bhrònag
Eala rid’ thaobh
Is roin os do chionn
Lacha Mhoire ‘sa’ chaol
‘S chan fhaobar mo bhrònag

Sleep beneath
The foam o’ the waves
On reefs of sleep
Dreaming in dew mist.
Sleep beneath
the foam o’ the weaves
On reefs of sleep
Dreaming in dew mist.

Thy sea bed
The seals(1) o’er head
From reivers dread
Securely guarding
Seals o’er head
thy deep sea bed.
From reivers dread
Securely guarding
III
While I croon
White swan(2) of the moon
Wild duck of the sound
By thee are resting
Moon swan
White swan of the moon
Wild duck of the sound
a near thee resting.
