Cò siud thall air sràid na h-eala
Fàill ill oro fàill ìll ó
Fàill iù ró 's na hóro èile
Fàill ill oro fàill ìll ó
Tha sinn ann Clann Nìll à Barraigh
'G iarraidh gu farsainneachd fearainn
Cò siud thall air sràid na h-eala
'G iarraidh Rùm is Eige is Canaigh
Colbhasaigh le chaoraich gheala
Cò siud thall air sràid na h-eala
Fàill ill oro fàill ìll ó
