Paroles et traduction Julie Fowlis - Òran an Ròin

Òran an Ròin

Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Hò i hì o hò i ì
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Cha robh mi 'm ònar a-raoir
'S mairg san tìr seo, 's mairg san tìr
'G ithe dhaoine 'n riochd a bhìdh
Nach fhaic sibh ceannard an t-sluaigh
Goil air teine gu cruaidh cruinn
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Hò i hì o hò i ì
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Cha robh mi 'm ònar a-raoir
'S mise nighean Aoidh mhic Eòghainn
Gum b' eòlach mi mu na sgeirean
Gur mairg a dhèanadh mo bhualadh
Bean uasal mi o thìr eile
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Hò i hì o hò i ì
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Cha robh mi 'm ònar a-raoir
Thig an smeòrach, thig an druid
Thig gach eun a dh'ionnsaigh nid
Thig am bradan thar a' chuain
Gu Là Luain cha ghluaisear mis'
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Hò i hì o hò i ì
Hò i hò i hì o hò i
Cha robh mi 'm ònar a-raoir

The Seal's Song

Ho i ho i hee o ho i
Ho i hee o ho i ee
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
I was not alone last night
Alas for this land, alas for this land
For people eat the creatures that live there
Do you not see the chieftain of the host
A foreigner fiercely burning
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
Ho i hee o ho i ee
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
I was not alone last night
I am the daughter of Hugh, son of Owen
For I was familiar with the skerries
And woe to the one who would strike me
I am a noblewoman from a foreign land
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
Ho i hee o ho i ee
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
I was not alone last night
The thrush comes, the druid comes
Every bird comes to its nest
The salmon comes over the ocean
Until Monday I will not move
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
Ho i hee o ho i ee
Ho i ho i hee o ho i
I was not alone last night
