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!
