An Rhibhin Donn
4
Ochoin a ri, 'si mo rhibhin donn,
5
Dh 'fhag mi fo mhi-ghean 'us m'inntinn trom!
6
Gur e a boichead a rinn mo leonadh,
7
'S cha bhi bed gun mo rhibhin donn.
8
Is truagh an drasda nach robh mi 'm bhard
9
A ghleusadh clarsach 's a sheinneadh dan
10
'S gu ' innsinn buadhan
11
Na maighdinn nasail,
12
Mu' bheil mo smuaintean gach oidhehe 's la.
13
Gur boidheach, dualach an cuailcan min
14
A th'air a'ghruagaich a bhuair mo chridh',
15
Gur binne comhradh
16
Na guth na smeoraich;
17
'S tha mise bronach o' dh'thag i mu.
18
Ged tha mo ghrian-sa a'triall fo sgleo,
19
Ils mise 'm bhadhna mar ian 'sa deo.
20
Togaidh ' sgaile
21
'S ni ise dearrsadh
22
'S gu 'm faigh mi slainte gach la ri 'm bheo.

The Brown Haired Maiden
24
Alas and woe is me, my brown haired maiden
25
The cause of my discontent and my heavy heart!
26
It is her beauty which has left me grieving
27
And I cannot survive without her.
28
Would that I were a bard
29
Who could tune a harp and sing a song
30
So that I might extol the virtues
31
Of that gentle maiden
32
Who feels my thoughts both night and day.
33
Beautiful and luxuriant is the delicate hair
34
Of the maiden who has wounded my heart;
35
Her conversation is sweeter
36
Than the singing of the thrush
37
And I am filled with sorrow since she left me.
38
When the month of May comes to the heathery glen
39
And all the plants of the meadow into full bloom
40
It reminds me of my loved one,
41
The comely little flower which grew so tenderly.
