wind and rain
fowlis, julie
bha da phiuthar ann 's iad a' coiseachd sios an t-sraid
o an t-uisge is a' ghaoth
phut an te bu shine an te eile dhan an t-sruth
is gaoir na gaoithe. there were two sisters came walking down the street
older one pushed the younger one in
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
oir thug seonaidh dhan te b' oige fainne alainn oir
o an t-uisge is a' ghaoth
cha d' fhuair an te eile aon sian dhe chuid
an t-uisge is gaoir na gaoithe
so she pushed her into the river to drown
watched her as she floated down
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
flodradh gus an d'rainig i linne mhor a' chasg
o an t-uisge is a' ghaoth
seall an eala air an t-snamh
an t-uisge is gaoir na gaoithe
then out of the woods came a fiddler fair
he plucked 30 strands of her long yellow hair
cried oh the dreadful wind and rain
is rinn e bogha grinn dhen gaoisnear ban
then he made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair
an t-uisge is gaoir na gaoithe
agus rinn e cnagan-fidhle dhe a corragan caola
and made fiddle pegs of her long finger bones
an t-uisge is gaoir na gaoithe
and he made a little fiddle of her own breast bone
o an t-uisge is a' ghaoth
which sound would melt a heart of stone
an t-uisge is gaoir na gaoithe
is an aona phort a thigeadh a-mach as an fhidheall
o an t-uisge is a' ghaoth
the only tune that the fiddle would play
was oh the dreadful wind and rain
there were two sisters came walking down the street
older one pushed the younger one in
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
'cos johnny gave the youngest one a gay
didn't give the other one anything
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
so she pushed her into the river to drown
watched her as she floated down
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
she floated till she came to the miller's pond
oh father there swims a swan
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
thern out of the woods came a fiddler fair
he plucked 30 strands of her long yellow hair
cried oh the dreadful wind and rain
then he made a fiddle bow of her long yellow hair
made a fiddle bow of her long
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
and he made fiddle pegs of her long finger bones
and made fiddle pegs of her long finger bones
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
and he made a little fiddle of her own breast bone
which sound would melt a heart of stone
crying oh the dreadful wind and rain
and the only tune that the fiddle would play
the only tune that the fiddle would play
was oh the dreadful wind and rain
