In Hebrid Seas
Green lies the dancing water, Green,purple, barr'd
with gold; Brown wing'd my boat flies o'er her,
Brown wing'd,while out the water White the keel,
the curling wavelet Tosses high, spraying round.
Heman dubh hirio Heman dubh hirio Leaving the Lews
to leeward, Blythly a-sailing seaward,White the keel,
the curling wavelet Tosses high, spraying round.
Tawny the shelving shore, Tawny the seals that rise,
Plunging beneath the water, Plunging in sharp suprise,
with eyes of fear and wild alarm As the white keel fast
tithier flies.
Heman dubh hirioro Heman dubh hirio, Leaving the Lews
to leeward, Blythly a-sailing seaward,White the keel,
the curling wavelet Tosses high, spraying round.
Nos Mares Hebrides
Verde é a água dançante, Verde, roxa, riscada
com ouro; Com asas marrons meu barco voa sobre ela,
Asas marrons, enquanto fora a água Branca a quilha,
a onda ondulante Lança alto, espirrando ao redor.
Heman dubh hirio Heman dubh hirio Deixando as Lews
para sotavento, Alegremente navegando para o mar,
Branca a quilha, a onda ondulante Lança alto, espirrando ao redor.
Tawny a costa inclinada, Tawny as focas que emergem,
Mergulhando sob a água, Mergulhando em aguda surpresa,
com olhos de medo e alarme selvagem Enquanto a quilha branca
rápida voa.
Heman dubh hirioro Heman dubh hirio, Deixando as Lews
para sotavento, Alegremente navegando para o mar,
Branca a quilha, a onda ondulante Lança alto, espirrando ao redor.
