An deid thu leam a ribhinn og
Gu tir mo gràidh sitheil sona
'S chi thu saighdearan a' ruith
Am measg nan lusan bèagh 'sa mhonadh

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

A' Coimhead a mach air maduinn chiuin
Air ball mor cruinn os cionn na beinne
'S bhon is ciuin na tonnan gorm
Tha ceol ru aig ceol na mara

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

'S an deid thu leam gu tir mo ghraidh
Seall na h-eoin Dhorchas Dhona
Treabhadh speuran as ar cionn
Deanamh air Steornabhagh le cabhaig

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

Nis leugh t-eachdraich, fosgail suil
Anns gach linn mu dhoigh an Airnm
Stampadh air na croitean seagail
'S beathannan og aig gillean Uibhist

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

Cha deid mise gu an righ
Cha deid mise an corr a shabaid
O lunnain mheallt, a Bhreatuinn fhoilleil
Cha seas mi ach 'son sith nan eilean

Ho ro horain O
Failte gu tir an airm
Ho ro horain O

Come along with me, my young girl
To the peaceful, happy land
And you will see soldiers running around
Amongst the beautiful wild machair flowers

Ho ro horain O
Welcome to the Land of the Army
Ho ro horain O

Looking out on a peaceful morning
On the great round ball above the mountain
And though the waves are calm
There's a new music in the music of the sea

Ho ro horain O
Welcome to the Land of the Army
Ho ro horain O

And will you go with me to the land I love
To see the dark evil birds
Ploughing the skies above us
Making for Stornoway at high speed

Ho ro horain O
Welcome to the Land of the Army
Ho ro horain O

Now read your history, open your eyes
To every generation and to the ways of the military
Stamping on the rye in the crofts
And the young lives of the Uist boys

Ho ro horain O
Welcome to the Land of the Army
Ho ro horain O

But I cannot go "for the King"
I cannot fight anymore
The deceit of London, the treachery of Britain
I'll only support peace in the islands

Ho ro horain O
Welcome to the Land of the Army
Ho ro horain O
