2 Thig blath air a' ghiutbas,
Thig duilleach air geig ;
Thig gucag air luachair,
'S cha ghluais mo bhean fein.
3 Thig na gabhra do 'n mhainnir,
Beiridh aighean duinn laoigh ;
Ach cha tig mo bhean dachaidh
A clachan nan craobh.
4 Thig Mart oirnn, thig Foghar,
Thig todhar, thig buar ;
Ach cha tog mo bhean luinneag
Ri bleoghann no buain.
5 Cha dirich mi tulach,
Cha shiubhail mi frith ;
Cha 'n fhaigh mi lochd cadail
'S mo thasgaidh 'sa chill.
6 Tha m' aoclach air tolladh,
Tha 'n olann gun sniomh ;
Agus deagh bhean an taighe
'Na laidlie fo dhion.
7 Tha mo chrodh gun an leigeil,
Tha 'n t-eadradh aig each ;
Tha mo leanabh gun bheadradh
'Na shuidh' air an lar.
8 Tha m' fhkrdach-sa creachte,
'13 lorn mo leac 'us gur fuar ;
Tha m' ionmhas 's mo bheairteas
Fo na leacan 'na suain.
Chorus
Toirt m' aghaidh ri Diura.

'S mo chill ri Port-Ascaig,
Shil gu frasach mo shuilean.
'S gun mo dhuil ri tigh 'nn dachaidh.

Air long nan tri chrannaibh,
'S iomadh te 'bha gu tiirsach,
'S deoir a 1 sruthadh gu talamh.
