CRIOSD ag imeachd le ostail,
’S a briste tosd thubhairt e--
'Ciod e ainm na lusa seo?'
'Is e ainm na lusa seo
An dearg-bhasach, [chasach
Bos deas De a Mhic
Agus a chos chli.'

CHRIST walking with His apostles,
And breaking silence He said
'What is the name of this plant?'
'The name of this plant is
The red-palmed, [stalked
The right palm of God the Son
And His left foot.'
