'Ille Dhuinn, 'S Toigh Leam Thu(original) |
| 'Ille dhuinn, 's toigh leam thu |
| 'S toigh leam fhìn thu, laochain |
| Mas toigh leat mi, is toigh leam thu |
| 'Ille dhuinn, 's toigh leam thu |
| 'S toigh leam fhìn thu, laochain |
| Mas toigh leat mi, is toigh leam thu |
| 'S gur òg a thug mi gaol dhut |
| Dh’fhalbh mi mar a b' àbhaist dhomh |
| Air sàillibh coimhead chaorach |
| 'S beag a bha dhem fhor orra |
| 'S mo leannan air a' chaolas |
| Nuair dhìrich mi suas Criongrabhal |
| 'S e m' inntinn nach robh aotrom |
| Bha 'm bàta mach gu Saighdeanais |
| 'S i toidhdidh fo cuid aodaich |
| 'S ann a their mo phàrantan |
| Gur tàmailt leotha m' fhaoineas |
| Gum faighinn fear na b' fheàrr na thu |
| Le bàtaichean 's le birlinn |
| Ged gheibhinn fear na b' fheàrr na thu |
| Le bàtaichean 's le birlinn |
| B' fheàrr leam fhìn an gille donn |
| Is e gun bhonn dhen t-saoghal |
| Ged gheall mi dhut gun leanainn thu |
| 'S gun dealaichinn ri mo dhaoine |
| Cha d' rachainn dha Na Hearadh leat |
| Air cheannachd air an t-saoghal |
| Ged a bhithinn pòsta riut |
| Is còir agam air d' fhaotainn |
| Cha b' fhada bhithinn beò agad |
| 'S an Dòmhnallach às m' aonais |
| 'Ille dhuinn, 's toigh leam thu |
| 'S toigh leam fhìn thu, laochain |
| Mas toigh leat mi, is toigh leam thu |
| 'S gur òg a thug mi gaol dhut |
| (translation) |
| Boy for us, I like you |
| I like you, hero |
| If you like me, I like you |
| Boy for us, I like you |
| I like you, hero |
| If you like me, I like you |
| And I fell in love with you when I was young |
| I left as usual |
| Because of looking after sheep |
| I didn't know much about them |
| My sweetheart is on the strait |
| When I climbed up Criongrabhal |
| My mind was not light |
| The boat was out to Arrivals |
| She's a towel under some clothes |
| My parents will say |
| They despise my vanity |
| To get a better one than you |
| By boats and galley |
| Although I would get a better man than you |
| By boats and galley |
| I personally preferred the brown-haired boy |
| It is without foundation |
| Although I promised you I would follow you |
| And that I would not part with my people |
| I wouldn't go to Harris with you |
| Purchased worldwide |
| Although I would be married to you |
| I deserve to receive you |
| I would not live long with you |
| And MacDonald without me |
| Boy for us, I like you |
| I like you, hero |
| If you like me, I like you |
| And I fell in love with you when I was young |
