Ailein Duinn (Theme From The Movie "Rob Roy") - Méav

Gura mise tha fo éislean How sorrowful I am

Moch sa mhaduinn is mi g'éirigh Early in the morning rising

Sèist: Chorus (after each verse):

Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat Ò hì, I would go with you

Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì

Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho

Ailein Duinn, ò hì shiùbhlainn leat Brown-haired Alan, ò hì, I would go with you

Ma 's'en cluasag dhuit a ghaineamh If your pillow is the sand

Ma 'se leabaidh dhut an gheamainn If your bed is the seaweed

Ma 's en t-iasg do choinlean geala If the fish are your bright candles

Ma 's e na ròin do luchd-faire If the seals are your watchmen

Dh'òlainn deoch ge boil le càch e I’d drink, though all abhor it

De dh’fhuil do choim 's tu 'n déidh do bhathadh Of your heart’s blood after

your drowning

How sorrowful I am

Early in the morning rising

Chorus: Chorus (after each verse):

Oh hi I would go with you Oh, I would go with you

Hi to cow hò ru bhì Hi to cow hò ru bhì

Hi ho cow o ho hi hi ri cow ho o ho

Brown-haired Alan, oh hi, I would go with you

If your pillow is the sand

If your bed is the seaweed

If the fish are your bright candles

If the seals are your watchmen

I’d drink, though all abhor it

Of your heart's blood after you were drowned Of your heart's blood after

your drowning
