| Notes 1 | "Two of the Piper’s sons, Angus and Donald went to see a boat with the intention of buying it. Their brother, Alexander was at the time going to college, studying for the priesthood. They were teasing him and telling him when they would get their boat they would engage him as their cook. Their father went to see the boat and condemned it as utterly worthless. Upon coming home he said to Alexander, “Coma leat s’, Alastair, am magadh aig Aonghas is Dòmhnull; bheir mise orra ’s gu ’m bi ceannach ac’ air a’ bhata.” He then composed this song. “Moipein” and “Brusg” were two little pigs." |
