Translation of the song lyrics Glasgow's Burning - Méav

Glasgow's Burning (original)

Alasdair Mhic
Cholla Ghasda
As do laimh-s' gun
Earbainn tapaidh
Mharbhadh Tighearna
Ach-nam-Breac leat
Chula mi’n de
Sgeul nach bait leam
Glaschu a bhith
Dol 'na lasair
Glaschu a bhith
Dol 'na lasair
'S Obair-Dheathain
'N deidh a chreachadh
Alastair, son of gallant Cholla,
From your arms I would expect heroic deeds.
The Lord of Each nam Breac was killed by you
I heard yesterday a strange story
That Glasgow was going up in flames
And Aberdeen was being pillaged

Glasgow's Burning (translation)

Alexander Mac
Cholla Ghasda
Out of your hands
Quick deer
Lord was killed
Ach-nam-Breac with you
Chula mi’n de
A story I don't like
Being Glasgow
Going up in flames
Being Glasgow
Going up in flames
And Aberdeen
After being plundered
Alastair, son of gallant Cholla,
From your arms I would expect heroic deeds.
The Lord of Each nam Breac was killed by you
I heard yesterday a strange story
That Glasgow was going up in flames
And Aberdeen was being pillaged
