Oh Mo Dhuthaich lyrics
An emigrant song in praise of Uist. The beautiful words were written
by Allan MacPhee who lived at Loch Carnan, South Uist.
O mo dhuthaich` stu th`air m`aire
Uibhist chumhraidh ur anan gallan,
Far a faighte na daoin` uaisle,
Far `m bu dual do Mha `ic Ailein.
Tir a` mhurain, tir an eorna
Tir `s am pailt a h-uile seorsa
Far am bi na gillean oga
Gabhail oran `s `g ol an lionna
Thig iad ugainn, carach, seolta
Gus ar mealladh far ar n-eolais;
Molaidh iad dhuinn Manitoba,
Duthaich fhuar gun ghual, gun mhoine.
Cha leig mi leas a bhith `ga innse,
Nuair a ruigear, `sann a chithear,
Samhradh goirid foghar sitheil,
Geamhradh fada na droch-shide
Nam biodh agam fhin de storas
Da dheis aodaich, paidhir bhrogan
Agus m`fharadh bhith `nam phoca
`Sann air Uibhist dheanainn seoladh.
