M'eudail air do shùilean donna
| Sèist: | Chorus: |
| M' eudail air do shùilean donna | I love your brown eyes |
| Air do shùilean 's air do bhodhaig | Your eyes and your shape |
| M' eudail air do shùilean donna | I love your brown eyes |
| 'S air do bhodhaig bhòidhich | And your comely shape |
| Gar am faighinn idir thu | If only I were to get you |
| Gar am faighinn fhìn thu | If only I were to get you to myself |
| Gar am faighinn idir thu | If only I were to get you |
| Na'n dèanadh tu mo dhìcheall | If you would allow me to persevere |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn na mìle not' | I wish more than a thousand pounds |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn na'n daoimean | I wish more than diamonds |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn na mìle not' | I wish more than a thousand pounds |
| Gur e nochd anoidhche | That tonight were the night |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn gu robh thu agam | I wish you were mine |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn na'n t-òr e | I wish it more than gold |
| B' fhèarr leam fhìn gu robh thu agam | I wish you were mine |
| 'S e do mhais a leòn mi | Your beauty has wounded me |
