| E ho i ri o | E ho i ri o |
| ‘S an raoir a chuala mi an fhaghaid | Last night I heard the fagot |
| E ho hi ri ri o ho gu | E ho hi ri ri o ho gu |
| E ho hi ri ri o | E ho hi ri ri o |
| Hi a bho hi u ru | Hi a bho hi u ru |
| Eadar ceann a' bhaigh ‘ s an fhadhail | Between the end of the bay and the ford |
| Cha ghuth gallain ‘s cha ghuth gadhair | No voice of a gallant and no voice of a dog |
| Guth na mna ‘ s i ‘m barr a meadhail | The woman's voice is at the top of her head |
| ‘S comhlan fhear oga ‘na deaghaidh | It is followed by a group of young men |
| O, ‘s i fhein a bha ‘gan taghadh | Oh, she chose them herself |
| Ghabh i ‘n t-oigeir seolta, seadhach | She became a seductive, seductive teenager |
| Ni thu fudar gorm a thaghadh | You choose blue powder |
