Chi M'in Tir |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| 'M barr a’chruinn 's Leac a' Li nam shealladh |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| A tir nan Suaineach a rinn sinn gluasad |
| 'S i leinn an uair tighinn tuath air Scalpaigh |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| Chi me Manais is Ceann an t-Saile |
| Caolas Bhearnaraidh is traighean Phabaidh |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| 'M barr a’chruinn 's Leac a' Li nam shealladh |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| Chi mi’n iasgair aig ceann nan lion |
| Is gu’m b’e mo mhiann bhith 'sa chiar 'gan tarruing |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| Nam faighinn ordugh gur mi bhiodh deonach |
| A gheola «loradh» 's a seoladh dhachaidh |
| Chi mi’n tir san robh mi nam bhalach |
| 'M barr a’chruinn 's Leac a' Li nam shealladh |
| Chi mi’n tir 'san robh mi’nam bhalach |
| I see the land where I was a boy |
| Over the mast, Lack alee is in sight |
| I see the land where I was a boy |
| We came from Sweden |
| And made good time reaching north of Scalpay |
| I see the land where I was a boy |
| I see Manais and Kintail |
| Kyle of Berneray and the shores of Pabbay |
| I see the fisherman at the net |
| And I’d love to be there in the gloaming, fishing |
| I see the land where I was a boy |
| If I were ordered, I would willingly |
| Lower the boat and sail home |
