Ard(original) |
| Madainn Di-haoine 's duthaich fo sgoth |
| 'S mi sgith le cuid smalan, mi-mhisneachd is bron |
| Seo an deicheamh la dhan a’Ghiblean 'sinn fo ghruaim a rithist |
| An co-dhunadh a cheannaich na daoine aig pris |
| Tha spiorad nan daoine nas soilleir na ghealach |
| Nas doimhne na’n cuan |
| Geigh sinn ar n-aite 'san t-shaoghal |
| 'S an ginealach ur |
| Ard: blar nan daoine |
| Ard: guth is saorsa |
| Ard: tha sinn gluasad |
| Gu h-ard theid sinn suas |
| 'S iomadh trioblaidtha romhainn 'nis Gaidheal agus Gall |
| 'S mi le aon suil air eachdraidh, aon suil mo chlann |
| Ach cum creideamh nad bheatha, sonas nad chridhe |
| Chan e seo deireadh rathaid ach toiseach linn |
| Tha spiorad nan daoine nas soilleir na ghealach |
| Nas doimhne na’n cuan |
| Geigh sinn ar n-aite 'san t-shaoghal |
| 'S an ginealach ur |
| Ard: blar nan daoine |
| Ard: guth is saorsa |
| Ard: tha sinn gluasad |
| Gu h-ard theid sinn suas |
| Chan urrain dhomh fuireach an taigh 'tha fo sgoth |
| Ach le creideamh is dochas gu deireadh mo la |
| Tha an lasair nad anam aig meadhan do bhith |
| Nas laidir’s nas motha na riaghaltas no righ |
| --oOo-- |
| Friday morning and the country is under a cloud |
| But I am tired of sorrow, pessimism, and gloom |
| This is the tenth day of April and we have been let down again |
| The decision that our people have bought at a price |
| The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon |
| Deeper than the ocean |
| We will find our place in the world |
| In a new generation |
| High: The peoples struggle |
| High: A Voice and self-determination |
| High: We are moving |
| We will reach up there |
| Many troubles now confront us, Highlander and Lowlander |
| As I keep one eye on history, one eye on my children |
| Keep belief in your life, joy in your heart |
| This is not the end of the road, but the start of a new age |
| The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon |
| Deeper than the ocean |
| We will find our place in the world |
| In a new generation |
| High: The peoples struggle |
| High: A Voice and self-determination |
| High: We are moving |
| We will reach up there |
| I can not live in the house of despondency |
| But in faith and in hope till the end of my days |
| The spark in your soul is the centre of your whole existence |
| And it is bigger and stronger than any government or King |
| (translation) |
| Friday morning and cloudy country |
| I get tired of some smudges, discouragement and sadness |
| This is the tenth day of April and we are depressed again |
| The decision that bought the people at a price |
| The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon |
| Deeper than the ocean |
| We find our place in the world |
| And the new generation |
| High: the battle of the people |
| Loud: voice and freedom |
| High: we are moving |
| Above we go up |
| There are many troubles ahead of us now Gaels and non-Gaels |
| I am with one eye on history, one eye my children |
| But keep faith in your life, happiness in your heart |
| This is not the end of the road but the beginning of a century |
| The spirit of the people is brighter than the moon |
| Deeper than the ocean |
| We find our place in the world |
| And the new generation |
| High: the battle of the people |
| Loud: voice and freedom |
| High: we are moving |
| Above we go up |
| I can't stay in the house 'under a boat |
| But with faith and hope to the end of my day |
| The flame in your soul is at the center of your being |
| Stronger than a government or a king |
