Soraidh bhuam gu Barraidh Eilean's maisich tha fo'n ghrein Far an nic an robh mi sugradh 's le sunna a ruith na spreidh Gur lionmhor lus tha fas fa'n druchd Is deallt air uir as dheidh A' bheireadh slainte is mnuirneal dhuit Air maduimn chubhraidh cheit
An am diread mo mhiann Air feasgar farm's an fhoghar Nuair a chromadh air a ghrian Gum beathaicheadh am faladh thu Far luscan b'aille fiomh An aiteag chubhraidh alvinn Thig far bharr a' chnain an lar.
An am eirigh anns an t-samhradh 'se bhith ann, bu mhor mo mhiann Gach iasgair 's e le bhata Dol gu aite a chuir na lion Nuair a charadh iad simil shlan rith Air a setadh dol dha'n iar.
'Se Barraidh an t-eilean 's boidhche Ann cho mor s gun d'chur mi nigh Far an tric an do ghabh mi oran Measg nan oighean maiseach civin 'S ged tha mi'n duigh air m'aimeol An Australia nan craobh Cha di-chuimhuich mi a Ghaidhlig Tha i sgriobhte 's a' chlaraig m'aois.
My blessings on Barra
My blessings on Barra the most beautiful island under the sun Where I often played And happily herded the cattle Plants abound beneath the dew And the fine rain on the soil On a May morning Gives forth both good health and happiness.
I wished for nothing better Than to walk through the maram grass To the moors As the sun sank low on a still autumn evening When the fragrance of the most beautiful plants Would invigorate me As would the gentle sea breezes Coming from the Atlantic.
In the summer My only wish was to be there As the fisherman in their boats Went to lay the lines. What a joy it was to watch The boatsunder full sail on The crests of the white waves As they headed on their westerly course.
Barra is the most beautiful island The island of my heart's desire When I often sang in the company Of serene and beautiful young ladies And although I'm alone today In Australia of the trees I'll never forget the Gaelic language Which is engraved on my mind.
