Moch Di Luain - Karen Matheson

Moch Di Luain

Moch Di-luain ghabh i 'n cuan

Moch Di-luain ghabh i 'n cuan

Moch Di-luain an deidh Di-domhnaich

Sheol i a Steornabhagh a' chaisteil

Gillean gasda air a bord

G' a cumail doigheil anns a' chala

Moch Di-luain ghabh i 'n cuan

Iubhrach a' ghluasaid ealaimh

Moch Di-luain ghabh i 'n cuan

Rachadh i cho glan an ordugh

Ri mnaoi oig a' dol gu banais

Nuair a chuartaich sinn an Tiompan

'S i bha sunndach, 's muir 'na meallan

Moch Di-luain ghabh i 'n cuan…

Early Monday

Early on Monday she went to sea

Early on Monday she went to sea

Early Monday after Sunday

She sailed the castle to Stornoway

Nice guys on board

Keeping her happy in the harbor

Early on Monday she went to sea

Yew of the agile movement

Early on Monday she went to sea

She would go so clean the order

To a young woman going to a wedding

When we circled the Tympan

And she was cheerful, and the sea was hail

Early on Monday morning she went to sea…
