Latha dhomh 's mi buain a choirce        
Gheàrr mi'm beum 's cha robh e socair        
        
Sèist:        Chorus (after each verse):
Hò rò na ho ri ri ò        
Hò rò na ho ri ri ò
Hi ri ri ri ho ro eile        
        
Gheàrr mi'm beum 's cha robh e socair        
Shuidh mi air uachdair a'ghoirtein        
        
Shuidh mi air uachdair a'ghoirtein        
Dh'fheuch am faicinn fear do choltais        
        
Dh'fheuch am faicinn fear do choltais        
Fear chùil duinn 's nan gruaidhean dosrach        
        
Fhaoileag bheag a shnàmhas an cala        
Beir mo shoraidh bhuam gu m' leannan

One day while I was reaping oats
I cut which a handful of corn
And it was not easy
         
Hò rò na ho ri ri ò      
Hò rò na ho ri ri ò
Hi ri ri ri ho ro eile         

2]
I cut which a handful of corn
And it was not easy
I sat by the edge of the cornfield

3]
I sat by the edge of the cornfield
To see if I can see one like you

4]
To see if I can see one like you
The one with brown locks and plummy cheeks

5]
Little seagull who can swim the harbour
Take my respects from me to my lover
