Lyrics: English Translation:
   
Feuch Sorchar nan reul Behold the lightener of the stars
Air corbha nan neul On the crests of the clouds
Agus ceòlraidh nan speur And the choralists of the sky
Ri luaidh dha Lauding Him
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
   
Tighinn le caithrim a nuas Coming down with acclaim
Bho an Athair tha shuas From the Father above
Clàr is inneal nan duan Harp and lyre of song
Ri seirm dha Sounding to Him
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
   
Chrìosd, a chomraich mo rùin Christ, Thou refuge of my love
Cuim nach togainn do chliù Why should not I raise Thy name
Ainglean agus naoimh chiùil Angels and saints melodious
Ri luaidh dhut Singing to Thee
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
   
Mhic Mhoire Oigh nam buadh Thou, Son of Mary of graces
Is fire fìnne-ghile snuadh Of exceeding white purity of beauty
Liom bu shon a bhi an cluan Joy were it to me to be in the fields
Do shaoibhreis Of Thy riches
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
   
A Chrìosda mo chaoimh Oh Christ, my beloved
A Chrìosda ro-naoimh Oh Christ of the holy blood
Bitheam gach là agus oidhche By day and by night
Ri luaidh ort I praise Thee
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
   
Feuch Sorchar nan reul Behold the lightener of the stars
Air corbha nan neul On the crests of the clouds
Agus ceòlraidh nan speur And the choralists of the sky
Ri luaidh dha Lauding Him
Sorchar nan reul Lightener of the stars
