Runrig - Thairs Air A Ghleann lyrics

(Original in gälisch)

Choimhead mi ri m'chul

Gun neimh gun truas

Larach mo chasan mu sgaoil

'S iad a triall tron an uir

Gu toiseach 's gu deireadh uair

'S gu na laithean soilleir buan

Thairis Air a ghleann

Thainig thu nuas

Gu fasach truagh

'S thog thu am faileasbhon a ghleann

Buidheachas is naire

An tomhas air gach lamh

Togaidh sinn do chliu an aird

Air slighe Dhia

O mollaidh sinn

An gaol 's an gras

A thug dhuinn bith

Cho umhail fo ghrein

'S i dealradh sios

Air reultan cein.

BEYOND THE VALLEY

I looked behind me

Whithout rancour without pity

To where my footprints were scattered

On their journey through the dust

From the beginning to an end of time

And to the bright everlasting days

Beyond the valley

You came down

To a barren wilderness

And you raised the shadow

From the valley

Gratitude and shame

The measure in each hand

We will proclaim your name in voice

On Gods way

We will praise

The love and the grace

That gave us our existance

So lowly beneath the sun

As it poured out ist light

On alien stars.
