Tir a' Mhurain
Tir a' Mhurain
Tir a' Mhurain
Trobhad is coisich rium
Ri taobh a' chuain Is seallaidh mi dhuit
Tir a' Mhurain
Failte gu mo dhan
Siol is meas nam bard
Am foghar bha feitheamh orm
Bho an la a bha mi og
(Chorus)
Failte gu mo thir
Eilean geal an iar
An t-ait a chi gach tuigse is firinn
Glaiste 'na mo chridke
(Chorus)
Failte gu mo chainnt
Is i dh'ionnsaich mi 'nam phaisde
Canan uasal mor nan Gaidheal
Mar bhratach dhomh gach la
(Chorus)
Is ged a dh' fheuch iad ri cur as dhuinn
Chi mo theaghlach cnoc nan linn
Is ged tha ar canan leoint le stri
'S an tir s*****dh i beo
(Chorus)
(Chorus)

Land Of Maram Grass
Land Of Maram Grass
Land Of Maram Grass
Come and walk with me
By the side of the ocean
Let me show you
The land of the maram grass
Welcome to my song
To the seed and the fruit of the bards
To the harvest that's been waiting
Since the days of youth
(Chorus)
Welcome to my landscape
The pure and unspoilt western island
To the place that will always find
It's meaning and truth
Locked away in my heart
(Chorus)
Welcome to my language
The one I learned as a child
The huge dignified language of the Gael
That stands like a banner
For me daily
(Chorus)
Although they tried to destroy us
My children will see
The landscape of generations
Although the language
Has been wounded in its struggle
In this land, she will live on
(Chorus)
