[Isobel Fortune:] [...?] bha ag ùrnaigh gus a [?] horses Bermuda—
That was supposed to be over here at the Coop. O Ìos' I'm so stupid.
[Sarah MacDonell:] Luther, labhair Luther anns a' Bheurla—
[IF:] That was Dòmhnall A.?
Labhair Luther anns a' Bheurla,
How I wish I had the mail route;
I would ride the mail night and day,
For any pay they offer me.
'S ged tha mi gun chrodh, gun aighean,
Crodh gun aighean, crodh gun aighean;
Ged tha mi gun chrodh, gun aighean,
Gheibh mi fhathast òigear grinn.
Faodaidh dhuibhse fortas bhi agaibh,
Bho 'n a th' agaibh sgoil is Beurla;
Is gheibh Theresa gheibh i mail ann,
Agus éiridh chuir dha'n Fhraing.
