Oh Mo Dhu haich - Oh My Country

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another traditional Scottish song, this one not very well known.
It's public domain though. These lyrics came from the copy I have
of the song on the Sidewaulk album by Capercaillie

Hope all you Gaelic learners out there will benefit from the bilingual
lyrics!. Oh, and apologies to anyone from Manitoba :-)

Oh mo dhu haich - Oh my country (trad.)

An emigrant song in praise of Uist. The beautiful words were written by
Allan McPhee who lived at Loch Carnan, South Uist.

O mo dhu haich 'stu th'air m'aire


Uibhist chumhraidh u nan gallan,


Far a faighte na daoin' uaisle,


Far 'm bu dual do Mhac 'ic Ailein.




Ti a'mhurain, ti an eorna


Ti 's am pailt a h-uile seosa


Far am bi na gillean oga


Gabhail oan 's 'g ol an lionna




Thig iad ugainn, carach, seolta


Gus ar mealladh far ar n-eolais;


Molaidh iad dhuinn Manitoa,


Du haich fhuar gun ghual, gun mhoine.

Cha leig mi leas a bhith 'ga innse,


Nuair a ruigear, 'sann a chithear,


Samhradh goirid foghar si heil,


Geamhradh fada na droch-shide




Nam biodh agam fhin de stoas


Da dheis aodaich, paidhir bhrogan


Agus m'fhaadh bhith 'nam phoca


'Sann air Uibhist dheanainn seoladh

The song 'the mist covered mountains' on the Local Hero soundtrack is
a traditional Gaelic song, 'Chi mi na mor-bheanna' (I will see the big
mountains). Here's the words of the chorus incase you fancy singing along
the next time you play the soundtrack! This song was also played at
John F. Kennedy's funeral. It was written in 1856 by John Cameron of
Ballachulish.

O chi, chi mi na mo-bheanna
O chi, chi mi na cor-bheanna,
O chi, chi mi na coireachan
chi mi na sgoran fo cheo.

Translation:

O I will see, see the big mountains
O I will see, see the peaked mountains
O I will see, see the corries,
I will see the misty peaks.
