Lyrics
Gràidhaich mi ach an gràdhaich mi thusa.
Mur a gràdhaich thu mi chan eil rian aig mo ghràdhsa ruighinn ort.
Tuig sin, a sheirbhisich!
O mhic na bithe!
Dìochuimhnich na h-uile ach mi
Agus co-labhair rim o spiorad.
Is e seo brìgh m’àithne is mar sin tionndaidh thuice.
O mhic na soillse!
O mhic na soillse.
Gràidhaich mi ach an gràdhaich mi thusa.
Mur a gràdhaich thu mi chan eil rian aig mo ghràdhsa ruighinn ort.
Tuig sin, a sheirbhisich!
O mhic na bithe!
Lyrics Translated
Love Me, that I may love thee.
If thou lovest Me not,
My love can in no wise reach thee.
Know this, O servant.
O son of being!
Forget all save Me and commune with My spirit.
This is the essence of My command,
Therefore turn unto it.
O son of light!
Love Me, that I may love thee.
If thou lovest Me not,
My love can in no wise reach thee.
Know this, O servant.
O son of being!
