COISICH A RÙIN:

GÀIDHLIG (GAELIC):
Coisich, a rùin, hù il oro
Cum do ghealdadh rium, o hi ibh o
Beir soraidh bhuam, hù il oro
Dha na Hearadh, boch orainn o

Beir soraidh bhuam
dha na Hearadh
Gu Seon Caimbeul,
donn mo leannan

Gu Seon Caimbeul,
donn mo leannan
Sealgair geòidh,
ròin is eala

Sealgair geòidh,
ròin is eala
Bhric a ní leum
'n fhèidh ri langan

'S fliuch an oidhche
nochd's gur fuar i
Ma thug Clann Nìll
druim a' chuain orr'

Ma thug Clann Nìll
druim a' chuain orr'
Luchd nan seòl àrd
's nan long luatha

Luchd nan seòl àrd
's nan long luatha
'S nam brataichean
gorm is uaine

'S nam brataichean
gorm is uaine
Cha b'fhear cearraig
bheireadh bhuat i

BEURLA (ENGLISH):
Come on, my love, hù il oro
Keep your promise to me, o hi ibh o
Take greetings from me, hù il oro
Over to Harris, boch orainn o

Take greetings from me
over to Harris
To John Campbell,
my brown-haired sweetheart

To John Campbell,
my brown-haired sweetheart
Hunter of goose,
seal and swan

Hunter of goose,
seal and swan
Of leaping trout,
of bellowing deer

Wet is the night,
tonight, and cold
If the MacNeills
have to put to sea

If the MacNeills
have to put to sea
Men of high sails
and swift of ships

Men of high sails
and swift of ships
And of banners
blue and green

And of banners
blue and green
No left-hander
could take her rudder from you


I searched to see if the lyrics were here, but the title only seems
to have been mentioned.
