Текст и перевод песни Julie Fowlis - Hò Bha Mi, Hé Bha Mi (Hò I Was, Hé I Was) (Live)

Hò Bha Mi, Hé Bha Mi (Hò I Was, Hé I Was) (Live)

Hò bha mi, hé bha mi
O bha mar rithe
Ged a bha mi mar tha mi
Bha mo làmh air a' nighinn.
Bha 'n cù 's e sìor dhranndan
As a' cheann sa robh 'n nighean
Bha mise gam chrùbadh
Sa chùil san robh 'n t-snighe.
Thuirt am bodach 's e 'g èirigh
As a lèine na shuidhe;
"Cò tha còmhl' riut, a Sheònaid?
A bheil thu 'd ònrachd a' bruidhinn?"
'S làbhair Seònaid ghrinn uasal
Air uachdar a cridhe
"Barail leam gur e bruadar
A ghluais sibh nur dithis."

Hò Bha Mi, Hé Bha Mi (Hò I Was, Hé I Was) (Live)

I Was, He Was,
You Came to Court Me
Although I Was as I Am
My Arm Was Around the Girl
The Dog Was Always Howling
At the End There Was the Girl
I Was Stroking
In the Nook Where the Snipe Was
The Old Man Said When He Rose
As He Pulled On His Jacket;
"Who's with You, Seònaid?
Do You Talk Without Honour?"
And Graceful, Pretty Seònaid Spoke
From the Depths of Her Heart
"I Think It Was Your Own Yapping
That Moved You Two."
