Tha Mo Ghaol Air Aird a' Chuain

Julie Fowlis

Mar A Tha Mo Chridhe

Here’s the song from the Brave TV spot! Thank you kind person on yahoo answers who knew who the artist was :)

Tha Mo Ghaol Air Àird A’ Chuain, by Julie Fowlis.

Now in the TV spot there are only four lines from the song, so according to the lyrics + translation found here, this is what we hear:

Feasgar ciùin an tùs a’ Chèitein
Dlùth do rìbinn donn nam blàth-shul
Siab do dheòir, do ghaol tha sàbhailt
Thill mi slàn bhàrr àird a’ chuain

and this is what it apparently means: (though it doesn’t make much sense)

On a quiet evening at the beginning of May
Nearer to the brown-haired maiden of the warm eyes
Wipe your eyes, your love is safe
I have returned to you from the high seas

Could someone who speaks Scottish Gaelic confirm this? ^^
