Seachduinn nan ran na e h hao oho
Orain binn luinn na hi ri rir etc
'S tusa cho furachail na e h hao oho
Gur tlachdmhor dhuinn na h-rain na hi ri rir etc

Ged nach do dh'fhoighnich sinn na e h hao oho
Cuiridh sinn a' chist nis na hi ri rir etc
A Chairistiona na e h hao oho
Eil thusa solasach? na hi ri rir etc
Eil thusa solasach na e h hao oho
Mar a tha sinn? na hi ri rir etc

Translation into English

It's a shame that we're leaving
It's a shame that we're leaving
a whole week
A week of songs
Melodious and beautiful songs
And you so attentive
that the songs would be pleasing to us
Lullabys and reels
Waulking songs and love songs
And greatly did we all enjoy them
And we are very happy
Although we have not asked
We put the question now
Christine
Are you happy?
Are you happy
As we are?
