A DHAOLAG, a dhaolag,
An cuimhne leat an la ’n de?
A dhaolag, a dhaolag,
An cuimhne leat an la ’n de?
A dhaolag, a dhaolag,
An cuimhne leat an la ’n de
Chaidh Mac De seachad?

LITTLE beetle, little beetle,
Rememberest thou yesterday?
Little beetle, little beetle,
Rememberest thou yesterday?
Little beetle, little beetle,
Rememberest thou yesterday
The Son of God went by?
