1
S mi ri imeachd nam aonar anns an og-mhadaim Mhaigh
2
Feadh leantaichean uaine mar fhear-fuadain gun stah,
3
Nuair a chunnaic mi a' ghruagach an taobh shuas dhiom a'tamh
4
's I ri nigh' a culd aodaich mach air aodann Srath Bhain.
5
An sin dhi
6
Ich mi suas far ' robh gruagach mo ghraidh
7
Is labhair mi rithe gu siobhalta tiah;
8
"Tha bliadhn' agus co
9
Are bhon a thoisich an gradh,
10
Is ma bhitheas tu deo
11
Ach ni sinn posadh gun dail. "
12
"Gu posadh, gu posadh ro og tha mi ' drasd'-
13
Gu bheil teang' aig do sheo
14
Sa dheanadh fogradh 's gach ait;
15
Gurn biodh m'athair 's mo mhahair gam chaindeadh gu brah
16
Nam posainn do leithid, O fhieasgaich gun stah. "
17
Ach a nionagan oga tha gun phosadh 's gach ait',
18
Na dluaibh fir oga le mo
19
Chuis no tair.
20
Nach muladach dhomhsa bhith gun phosadh gu brah-
21
's fheudar fulreach nam aonar mach air aodann Srath Bhain.

(Translation) The Slopes Of Strath Ba
23
Walking out early alone on a morning in May
24
Among green fields, an outcast and purposeless,
25
I saw a maiden who lived some way above me
26
As she washed her clothes out on the slopes of Strath Ba
27
.
28
I then climbed upwards to the maiden I loved
29
And courteously and mildly I spoke to her:
30
"It's over a year since our love began,
31
And if you are willing we shall marry at once. "
32
"Marry? I'm too young to marry just now-
33
Your sort has a tongue that could cause trouble anywhere;
34
My father and mother would scold me forever more
35
If I were to marry the likes of you, you feckless young man. "
36
But you young girls everwhere who are still unmarried,
37
Don't go turning young men down through pride or contempt
38
How sad for me to be unmarried forever more-
39
I'll have to live alone, out on the slopes of Strath Ba
