English Translation

There's a darkness on the Island of 
Skye tonight
The colours are clearing away from 
the hills
A shadow is falling down from the 
Storr
Like your dark hair sweeping across 
your face

What use is the well without water
What use is the body without the 
heart
If I had the power of this landscape
 in my hands
We'd be together again on the island

Maybe we will never find a heaven or
 any other existence
When we finally close our eyes at 
the end of our days
But I have found my heaven here in 
this place
Where you gave me your promise and 
your full heart

Horo Mairi o
Horo Mairi o
Horo Mairi o
I miss you
