I think Google translate got that right, which is amazing as usually the Gaelic translations are gibberish.
Maybe this is a sailing/rowing song.
I expect "Cola" is Colonsay (Colbhasa) - singer says although I am in Cola I would like to go to Rum (another island, north of Eigg, much further north of Colonsay).
