The ghost goes out in rags
Eyes aglow like embers
When the cold wind blows
Embers are sparkling and aflame
Burning head I ride
On the blackened timber
Sink the fearful night
For this day is open, it begins
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Ruel an anamoich o hi
‘S fheudar falbh le ‘cuid seol
Day light up the green
I long to fill this wilderness
Sirens from the deep
Sing to me, sing to me
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Ruel an anamoich o hi
‘S fheudar falbh le ‘cuid seol
Above there are stars
Above there are stars
Before and beneath me
Nations of stars
Shine down on me
Fill my empty chest
Fast hands gather precious
Loaded I’ll return
Into Portobello
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Leis an lurgainn o hi
Ruel an anamoich o hi
‘S fheudar falbh le ‘cuid seol
