The Byrnes - Crossing Borders – Chansons d'Ecosse, de France et d'Irlande

Illean Bithibh Sunndach

'Illean bithibh sunndach a-null air a' bhòidse
Fàgail ar dùthcha gun dùil ri tighinn beò ann
'Illean bithibh sunndach a-null air a' bhòidse

Boys, be happy, going on the voyage
Leaving our country without hope of doing well there
Boys, be happy going on the voyage

'Illean cridheil gaolach, togaibh rithe h-aodach
Tha buidheann mo ghaoil-sa Diardaoin dol a sheòladh

Gur mise tha gu cianail a' fàgail a' Chrianain
A' dol gu dùthaich fhiadhaich a dh'iarraidh ar lòin às

Gur mise tha fo ghruaimean a' dol a shiubhal chuantan
Tha an soitheach dubh a' gluasad, gu muladach a' seòladh

Tha sinn a' dol dh'Amaireaga far nach bi cùram eil' oirnn
Cho fad 's a mhaireas coille dhuinn an Eilean Nobha Scotia
