Flower of Scotland an Ghaidlig

Found the lyrics to Flower of Scotland in gaelic, think i'll learn them for next Scotia match.

O Fhlu\ir na h-Albann,
cuin a chi\ sinn
an seo\rsa laoich
a sheas gu ba\s 'son
am bileag feo\ir is fraoich,
a sheas an aghaidh
feachd uailleil Iomhair
's a ruaig e dhachaidh
air chaochladh smaoin?





Na cnuic tha lomnochd
's tha duilleach Foghair
mar bhrat air la\r,
am fearann caillte
dan tug na seo\id ud gra\dh,
a sheas an aghaidh
feachd uailleil Iomhair
's a ruaig e dhachaigh
air chaochladh smaoin.



Tha 'n eachdraidh du\inte
ach air di\ochuimhne
chan fheum i bhith,
is faodaidh sinn e\irigh
gu bhith nar Ri\oghachd a-ri\s
a sheas an aghaidh
feachd uailleil Iomhair
's a ruaig e dhachaidh
air chaochladh smaoin.

 

wot 4, nobody else knows how 2

 

half our fans wouldn't be able to sing amhrainn na bhfainn as gaeilge bud,and we get taught it in school.and isn't scots gaelic a language of the highlands and western isles only?its certainly not the native tongue of lowland scots,they don't have much of a connection to ireland

 

dotaman is my limit

im scottish , not a gluten for punishment

 

I do.

 

Well am learning gaelic and last i checked the highlands and the islands were part of Scotland. I'd be fine singing they words on ma own in the middle of Hampden. And I never said anything about Ireland. Those lyrics are in Scots Gaelic.

 

i mentioned ireland because thats were gaelic culture in scotland originates.nothing whatsoever to do with lowland scots,who are basically a mix of english and norse.you might remember that the next time you see a lowlander wearing a kilt!

 

True. And it was mostly non-Gaelic lowland Scots who planted Ulster in the 17th Century, creating an animosity with the Native Irish Gaels which exists to this day.

 

I started to learn Gaelic when I was at school but I was never good with languages.
