Dorch a-nochd tha 'n t-Eilean

Dathan air am fuadach far nam beann

Tha faileas a' tuiteam bhon an Stor

Mar t-fhalt dorch a' sguabadh do cheann

English Translation
There's a darkness on the Island of Skye tonight
The colours are clearing away from the hills
A shadow is falling down from the Storr
Like your dark hair sweeping across your face
What use is the well without water
What use is the body without the heart
If I had the power of this landscape in my hands
We'd be together again on the island
Maybe we will never find a heaven or any other existence
When we finally close our eyes at the end of our days
But I have found my heaven here in this place
Where you gave me your promise and your full heart
Horo Mairi o
Horo Mairi o
Horo Mairi o
I miss you
