An cuala sibh gun d' ghoid MacShithich |
Did you hear that MacShithich |
|
Poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
Stole a poke of grain from the big glen |
|
An cuala sibh gun d' ghoid MacShithich |
Did you hear that MacShithich |
|
Poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
Stole a poke of grain from the big glen |
|
An cuala sibh gun d' ghoid MacShithich |
Did you hear that MacShithich |
|
Poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
Stole a poke of grain from the big glen |
|
Poca gràin à Peighinn nam Fìdhlear |
A bag of grain from Penifiler |
|
'S poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
And a poke of grain from the big glen |
| |
|
|
Poca gràin à Peighinn nam Fìdhlear |
A bag of grain from Penifiler |

Poca gràin à Peighinn nam Fìdhlear |
A bag of grain from Penifiler |
|
'S poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
And a poke of grain from the big glen |
|
Poca mìn à Peighinn nam Fìdhlear |
A bag of grain from Penifiler |
|
'S poca sìl às a' ghleann mhòr |
And a poke of grain from the big glen |
