Sèist:
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o
Thug o-ho-ro an aill libh
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o
Seinn o-ho-ro an aill libh

Och 'sa mhaduinn's mi dusgadh
'S mor mo shunnd's mo cheol-gaire
O'n a chuala mi 'm Prionnsa
Thighinn do dhuthaich Chlann Ra'ill

O'n a chuala mi 'm Prionnsa
Thighinn do dhuthaich Chlann Ra'ill
Grainne mullaich gach righ thu
Slan gum pill thusa, Thearlaich

Grainne mullaich gach righ thu
Slan gum pill thusa, Thearlaich

Anns a ghruadh is mor-naire

Anns a ghruadh is mor-naire

Bhiodh gach tighearn' 'n aite

Chorus (after each verse):
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o
Thug o-ho-ro an aill libh
Thug ho-o, laithill ho-o
Seinn o-ho-ro an aill libh

Early as I awaken
Great my joy, loud my laughter
Since I heard that the Prince comes
To the land of Clanranald

Since I heard that the Prince comes
To the land of Clanranald
Thou art the choicest of all rulers
Here's a health to thy returning

Thou art the choicest of all rulers
Here's a health to thy returning
His the royal blood unmingled
Great the modesty in his visage

His the royal blood unmingled
Great the modesty in his visage
With nobility overflowing
And endowed with all good nature

With nobility overflowing
And endowed with all good nature
And shouldst thou return ever
At his post would be each laird
