Remaining verses: 'S a bheil sibh an dùil am pàigh i dhomh, No am buin i ri mo nàdar-sa? Ma sin fìor, gun tèid mi fhìn A-null air sgrìob a dh'Astràilia. 'S e chanas cuid dhe mo chàirdean rium, "'S ann ort a bha am fàilligeadh; Bha thu gun diù agus 's tu bha faoin Nuair a thug thu 'n taobh-sa phlàigh bha sin." 'S ged bheirinn Eachann Sheòrais thuic' 'S gun cuir e i an òrdugh dhomh, 'S e chanas e rium, "Chan eil innt' ach a' bhrùid Thàinig a-nall à Uig - nach bu chòir i sin."

Sèist:

'S i bheairt a rinn mo shàrachadh;

'S i bheairt a rinn mo shàrachadh;

Nuair a chuir mi innte spàl

Bhrist ise h-uile snàth a bh' ann.

'S i bheairt a rinn mo shàrachadh.

Ged nach eil mi eòlach oirr',

Tha eagal orm nach còrd i rium;

Tha na h-iomallan innte cho dlùth

Agus chan eil sùil far 'm bu chòir dha bhith.

My first experiences of Lewis were, in 1974(75), with The Lochies' Lewis Folk & Home to Lewis playing constantly in the car tapedeck.

Thanks for the memories -

My Favourite was Deireadh Forladh (Hint) :)

[magareeroo]

Heck, I obviously have too much time on my hands! Can't wait till I retire!

Deireadh Forladh, as requested!

[johnypebs]

mothalsi,

if you go to 'bicycle repair man' in my vid's you can hear a track from 'Home to Lewis'. It's available on iTunes, I have it on my iPhone, also have the original vinyl. My mum was from Ranish.

magareeroo may i thank you immmensely for posting the lochies and one of my favourite songs by them on youtube, wonderful to hear it again.

[mairi009]

anymore lochies songs would like to listen to some more :)

[magareeroo]

yep, just check my other uploads...and watch this space!

[RIOFRAFF]

Brilliant! Jus found the Liosmor website the other day wher all this can be downloaded! This will keep me sane at sea for a month or three! Post more of this, and Donald Macrae if you can, him, Calum Kennedy and David Lal Mackenzie are/were surely the best traditional singers from Lewis? {excluding the rudhachs!}

[magareeroo]

Delighted to be of service!

Domhnall Macrae coming up....finding the photos to go with the songs is annoying, but it must be done!

Watch this space!

@RIOFRAFF

I know, it is a while ago, but which site is that Liosmor site you are talking about?

Thankyou!
