Gradh Geal Mo Chridhe Songtext
von Alison Helzer

′S iomadh oidhche fliuch 'us fuar(Many nights wet and cold)
Ghabh mi cuairt ′us mi leam fhìn(I took a trip all by myself)

Gus an d' ràinig mise 'n t-àit′(Until I reached the place)
Far an robh gràdh geal mo chridh′ (Where was my heart's fair love)
Bheir mi ò hu ò hò
Bheir mi ò hu ò hì

Bheir mi ò hu ò hò
′S mi fo bhròn 's tu gam dhìth (I am sorrowful without your company)
Dhèanainn treabhadh dhuit is buan (I would plough and reap for you)
Chumainn suas thu gun dìth(I would keep you unfailingly)
Bheirinn as a′ ghreabhal chruaidh (I would like to take from the hard gravel)


Do mo luaidh teachd an tìr (A livelihood for my love)
Bheir mi ò hu ò hò
Bheir mi ò hu ò hì
Bheir mi ò hu ò hò

'S mi fo bhròn ′s tu gam dhìth (I am sorrowful without your company)
Ged nach eil sinn fhathast pòsd'(Although we are not yet married)
Tha mi'n dòchas gum bi (I hope we will be)
Fhad′ ′s a mhaireas mo dhà dhòrn (As long as I have my two hands)
Cha bhith lòn oirnn a dhìth (We will want for nothing)
Bheir mi ò hu ò hò
Bheir mi ò hu ò hì
Bheir mi ò hu ò hò
'S mi fo bhròn ′s tu gam dhìth
