An raibh tu i gCill Alla no Caislean a' Bharraigh Were you in Killala or in Castlebar
Bhfaca tu campai a bhi ag na Francaigh? Or did you see the camp the French had there?
Mise 'gus tusa 'gus ruball na muice Me and you and the pig's tail
'Gus bacach Shil' Andai, bacach Shil' Andai And Bucky Highlander, Bucky Highlander
   
Bhi me i gCill Alla is Caislean a' Bharraigh I was in Killala and in Castlebar
Chonaic me campai bhi ag na Francaigh I saw the camp the French had there
Mise 'gus tusa 'gus ruball na muice Me and you and the pig's tail
'Gus bacach Shil' Andai, bacach Shil' Andai And Bucky Highlander, Bucky Highlander
   
An raibh tu ar a chruach no bhfaca tu slua Were you on the Reek or did you see the throng
Bhi ar Chnoc Phadraig, bhi ar Chnoc Phadraig? That was on Croagh Patrick, that was on Croagh Patrick?
Mise 'gus tusa 'gus ruball na muice Me and you and the pig's tail
'Gus bacach Shil' Andai, bacach Shil' Andai And Bucky Highlander, Bucky Highlander
   
A bhi me ar a chruach is chonaic me slua I was on the Reek and I saw the throng
A bhi ar Chnoc Phadraig, bhi ar Chnoc Phadraig That was on Croagh Patrick, that was on Croagh Patrick
Mise 'gus tusa 'gus ruball na muice Me and you and the pig's tail
'Gus bacach Shil' Andai And Bucky Highlander
