SEISD:—Hi oro's na horo eile
(CHORUS) Hioro’sna horo eile
Hi oro’s na horo eile
Gur tu mo luaidh ri’m bheo cha cheil mi.
Nuair a hha mi’m chaileig ghoraich,
Thug mi gaol’us gradh do’n digear
Aig am bheil a

phearsa bhdidheach;
'S cha ghradhaich mi ri’m bhed fear eile.
Hi ord’s na horo eile, etc.
Chaidh mi choill nan crann’s nan gallan
;
Chuir mi siiil am fiuran maiseach
B" aim an Glasacho nam buthan
A thug mi run do’n diiilnach fearail.
Hi orb’s na horo eile, etc.
Meur a’s grinn’air peann a sgriobhas,
’S a chuir gleus air teudan fidhle;.
’S e do chedl a thogadh m’ inntinn
An uair a bhithinn sgith fo smalan.
Hi orb’s na horo eile, etc.
Do chill dualach, cuachach,bdidheach;
Fait do chinn mar item lon-duibh;
Do dha ghruaidh air dhreach nan rdsan,
’Us iad fo dhealta ced na maidne.
Hi ord’s na horo eile, etc.
Tha do chalpa cuimir, direach,
Mar bhradan aimhne ruith gu fior-ghlan
;
’S gura fior gu’n d’ thug mi’ luaidh dhuit
Am measg na bheil de shluagh air thalamb.
Hi orb’s na horo eile, etc.
Ach tha mise’n diiil’s an dbchas
Gu'n tig an la ’sam bi sinn cdmhla;
S ma bhios tusa dileas ddmhsa,
Cha ghradhaich mi ri’m bheb fear eile.
Hi ord's na horo eile, etc.
AE FOND KISS.
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever!
< Ae fareweel, and then, for ever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee!
Who shall say that Fortune grieves him,
While the star of hope she leaves him?
Me,nae cheerfu’ twinkle lights me.
Dark despair around benights me.
I’ll ne’er blame my partial fancy,
Naething could resist my Nancy
;
But to see her was to love her,
Love but her, and love for ever.
Had we never loved sae kindly,
Had we never loved sae blindly,
Never met_ or never parted,
We had ne’er been broken-hearted.
Fare-thee-weel, thou first and fairest!
Fare-thee-weel, thou best and dearest!
| Thine be ilka joy and treasure,
Peace, enjoyment, love, and pleasure!
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever!
( Ae fareweel, alas! forever!
Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee,
Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee!
