Lyrics of Air A Chuan - Runrig

Air A Chuan (original)

Tha am ball air fhuasgladh
Is tha sinn a' gluasad
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Tha sinn a' seoladh
Tro thonnan uaine
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Air cursa deonach
Tha sinn a' seoladh
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Fad bho thir
Is an talamh aghmhor
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Is mi a' sealltainn man cuairt
Is mi cho fada bhuat
Cail ach muir, tonnan is cuan
O mo rùn
Tha a' ghaoth a' seideadh
Nan tonnan fiadhaich
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Tro thonnan fiadhaich
Is droch shide
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Cho domhain an cuan
Cho luachmhor an uair
Nach mair fada buan
O mo rùn
Sinn a' treabhadh
Tron an oidhche
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Siubhal sàbhailteachd
Is madainn shunndach
Air a' chuan, air a' chuan
Thig crioch air an t-saoghal
Is thig crioch air daoin'
Ach mairidh ceol is mairidh gaol
O mo rùn

(translation)

The ball is loose
And we are moving
On the sea, on the ocean
We are sailing
Through green waves
On the sea, on the ocean
On a voluntary course
We are sailing
On the sea, on the ocean
Distance from land
The land is aghmhor
On the sea, on the ocean
And I look around
I am so far from you
Nothing but sea, waves and ocean
Oh my love
The wind is blowing
In the wild waves
On the sea, on the ocean
Through wild waves
It's bad weather
On the sea, on the ocean
So deep the basin
So valuable an hour
Not long lasting
Oh my love
We are plowing
During the night
On the sea, on the ocean
Travel safety
It's a happy morning
On the sea, on the ocean
The world will end
And people will come to an end '
But music lasts and love lasts
Oh my love
