Lyrics

Dhìt Pìleat gu bàs Thu, Britheamh ceàrr bha gun bhuaidh; Cha chum ionnlad a làmh e ’N taobh sàbhailt’ Là Luan Crann-ceusaidh na nàire Spàrr a’ ghràisg air mo luaidh; ’S ann a ghlac Thu le fàilte Inneal shàbh’laidh an t-sluaigh.

Lyrics Translated

Pilot sentenced You to death, A wrong judgement that had no consequence His hand will not be cleansed On this side of Judgment Day. The shameful crucifix Which a gang thrust on my beloved You grabbed with welcome The way of salvation for the people. Translation by Gillebride MacMillan
