Madainn Di-haoine 's duthaich fo sgoth
|
'S mi sgith le cuid smalan, mi-mhisneachd is bron
|
Seo an deicheamh la dhan a’Ghiblean 'sinn fo ghruaim a rithist
|
An co-dhunadh a cheannaich na daoine aig pris
|
Tha spiorad nan daoine nas soilleir na ghealach
|
Nas doimhne na’n cuan
|
Geigh sinn ar n-aite 'san t-shaoghal
|
'S an ginealach ur
|
Ard: blar nan daoine
|
Ard: guth is saorsa
|
Ard: tha sinn gluasad
|
Gu h-ard theid sinn suas
|
'S iomadh trioblaidtha romhainn 'nis Gaidheal agus Gall
|
'S mi le aon suil air eachdraidh, aon suil mo chlann
|
Ach cum creideamh nad bheatha, sonas nad chridhe
|
Chan e seo deireadh rathaid ach toiseach linn
|
Tha spiorad nan daoine nas soilleir na ghealach
|
Nas doimhne na’n cuan
|
Geigh sinn ar n-aite 'san t-shaoghal
|
'S an ginealach ur
|
Ard: blar nan daoine
|
Ard: guth is saorsa
|
Ard: tha sinn gluasad
|
Gu h-ard theid sinn suas
|
Chan urrain dhomh fuireach an taigh 'tha fo sgoth
|
Ach le creideamh is dochas gu deireadh mo la
|
Tha an lasair nad anam aig meadhan do bhith
|
Nas laidir’s nas motha na riaghaltas no righ

|
Friday morning and the country is under a cloud
|
But I am tired of sorrow, pessimism, and gloom
|
This is the tenth day of April and we have been let down again
|
The decision that our people have bought at a price
|
The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon
|
Deeper than the ocean
|
We will find our place in the world
|
In a new generation
|
High: The peoples struggle
|
High: A Voice and self-determination
|
High: We are moving
|
We will reach up there
|
Many troubles now confront us, Highlander and Lowlander
|
As I keep one eye on history, one eye on my children
|
Keep belief in your life, joy in your heart
|
This is not the end of the road, but the start of a new age
|
The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon
|
Deeper than the ocean
|
We will find our place in the world
|
In a new generation
|
High: The peoples struggle
|
High: A Voice and self-determination
|
High: We are moving
|
We will reach up there
|
I can not live in the house of despondency
|
But in faith and in hope till the end of my days
|
The spark in your soul is the centre of your whole existence
|
And it is bigger and stronger than any government or King |
