Translation of the song lyrics Ailein Duinn (Theme From The Movie "Rob Roy") - Méav

Ailein Duinn (Theme From The Movie "Rob Roy") (original)

Gura mise tha fo éislean How sorrowful I am
Moch sa mhaduinn is mi g'éirigh Early in the morning rising
Sèist: Chorus (after each verse):
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat Ò hì, I would go with you
Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Ailein Duinn, ò hì shiùbhlainn leat Brown-haired Alan, ò hì, I would go with you
Ma 's'en cluasag dhuit a ghaineamh If your pillow is the sand
Ma 'se leabaidh dhut an gheamainn If your bed is the seaweed
Ma 's en t-iasg do choinlean geala If the fish are your bright candles
Ma 's e na ròin do luchd-faire If the seals are your watchmen
Dh'òlainn deoch ge boil le càch e I’d drink, though all abhor it
De dh’fhuil do choim 's tu 'n déidh do bhathadh Of your heart’s blood after
your drowning

Ailein Duinn (Theme From The Movie "Rob Roy") (translation)

How sorrowful I am
Early in the morning rising
Chorus: Chorus (after each verse):
Oh hi I would go with you Oh, I would go with you
Hi to cow hò ru bhì Hi to cow hò ru bhì
Hi ho cow o ho hi hi ri cow ho o ho
Brown-haired Alan, oh hi, I would go with you
If your pillow is the sand
If your bed is the seaweed
If the fish are your bright candles
If the seals are your watchmen
I’d drink, though all abhor it
Of your heart's blood after you were drowned Of your heart's blood after
your drowning
