GF010i01N HI RI HIM BÒ

Beulaiche: Steafan Iain Pheigi Ailein | Jim MacKinnon

Chì mi, chì mi thallad
Chì mi na féidh air am bearradh.

Séist: Hi rì him bó, hill oro ho
Hi rì him bó, hi rithill iù
Hi rì him bó, hill oro tha.

Chì mi na féidh air a' bhealach,
'S an giomanach fhéin 'ga leantail.

Chì mi na féidh air a' bhealach,
'S an giomanach fhéin 'ga leantainn

An giomanach fhéin 'ga leantail,
Dh'fhàg e an damh donn gun anail.

Dh'fhàg e an damh donn gun anail,
Air a thaobh a' call na fala.
