Chi Mi Bhuam (I See Afar) (исполнитель: Karen Matheson)
Chi mi bhuam, fada bhuam Chi mi bhuam ri muir-làn Chi mi Muile nam beann fuar Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil Chi mi mullach nam beann mór Anns an òg-mhadainn aigh An t-aon as airde dhiubh nan còrr 'S badan ceò air a bàrr Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil Chì mi ghucag air an fhraoch Chì mi'n caorann fo bhlàth Chì mi uisge glan nam beann Tigh'nn 'na dheann leis gach màm Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil Tir a' bharraich, tìr nan stuadh 'S tric a luaidh ort na bàird 'S nuair a thug mi riut mo chùl Rinn mi dùsgadh gu dàn 'S bidh mi luaidh ort gu bràth Chi mi bhuam, fada bhuam Chi mi bhuam ri muir-làn Chi mi Muile nam beann fuar Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil Fada bhuam thar an t-sàil ---------------------------------------------- I see from me, far from me I see from me to high-tide I see Mull of the cold mountains Far from me across the seas Far from me across the seas I see the tops of the big mountains In the brave dawn The height of each one of them is excessive And a cloud of mist on top Far from me across the seas I see a bud upon the heather I see the rowan tree in bloom I see clear water of the [bad word] in haste with each mound Far from me across the seas Land of the treetops, land of the waves 'Tis often its wool on you, the bard I awoke boldly And I will love you forever I see from me, far from me I see from me to high-tide I see Mull of the cold mountains Far from me across the seas Far from me across the seas * Lyrically it is another song in praise of a beautiful place (in this case the Isle of Mull) and melodically I feel the simplicity is so beautiful and reminds me of village ceilidhs growing up in Taynuilt - I think Donald's piano on this track is sublime - we did it in one take and just connected!
