Ciamar a ni mi dannsa direach
Ciamar a ni mi ruidhle bhoidheach
Ciamar a ni mi dannsa direach
dh'Fhalbh am prionn aig bonn mo chota

Tha nid na circe-fraoiche
(The nest of the grouse)
'S a' mhuilinn dubh, 's a' mhuilinn dubh
(In the black mill, in the black mill)
Tha nid na circe-fraoiche
(The nest of the grouse)
'S a' mhuilinn dubh o shamhraidh
(Is in the black mill since the summer time)

Tha 'm muilinn dubh air thuraman
(The black mill is moving around)
Tha 'm muilinn dubh air thuraman
(The black mill is moving around)
Tha 'm muilinn dubh air thuraman
(The black mill is moving around)
'S e togairt dol a dhannsa
(And we expect to go dancing)

'S iomadh rud saoil sibh
(There are many things you wouldn't expect)
'S a' mhuilinn dubh, 's a' mhuilinn dubh
(In the black mill, in the black mill)
'S iomadh rud saoil sibh
(There are many things you wouldn't expect)
'S a' mhuilinn dubh o shamhraidh
(Is in the black mill since the summer time)
