Mile marphaisg air a ghaol (A Thousand Death Shrouds on Love)

Cha teid mise, cha teid mi
Cha teid mi le gin 's an tir
Cha teid mi le màc an t-saòir
No idir le màc a mhaòir
Cha b'ann air a bha mo ghaol
B'annsa fear an leadain duinn
Giómanach a ghùnna chaoil
Rachadh air ùilinn 's an fhraoch
'S a leagadh an eal 'air a taobh
Lacha bheag a' mhùineil chaoil
Mile marphaisg air a ghaol
Chuir an tainead fàlt mo chinn
Feàr a dh'fhalbh 's nach do thìll

O hi riri ri ri iù
O hi ù a o hug o
O hi ù a o hi ù
Huraibhi ù a o hùg o

(Traditional, arranged by Mairi MacInnes & William Jackson, published by Grian Music)
