Capercaillie Ailein duinn Lyrics

Gura mise tha fo éislean
Moch sa mhaduinn is mi g'éirigh
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Ailein Duinn,
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

Ma 's e 'n cluasag dhuit a ghaineamh
Ma 's e leabaidh dhut an gheamainn
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Ailein Duinn,
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

(Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat)

Ma 's e 'n t-iasg do choinlean geala
Ma 's e na ròin do luchd-faire

Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Ailein Duinn,
Ò hì shiùbhlainn leat

Dh'òlainn deoch ge b' oil le càch e
De dh'fhuil do choim 's tu 'n déidh do bhathadh

[edit] Translation

How sorrowful I am
Early in the morning rising

Chorus (after each verse): Ò hì, I would go with thee
Hì ri bhò hò ru bhì
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Brown-haired Alan, ò hì, I would go with thee

If it is thy pillow the sand
If it is thy bed the seaweed

If it is the fish thy candles bright
If it is the seals thy watchmen

I would drink, though all would abhor it
Of thy heart's blood after thy drowning
