Tàladh Chriosda with Scottish Gaelic text and translation

Also known as the Tàladh ar Slànair, this hymn is sung at midnight Mass on Christmas Eve in the islands of Barra, South Uist and Eriskay in the Outer Hebrides. The words were written by Father Ranald Rankin, and given by him to the children of his congregation when he left for Australia in 1855. The original song has 29 verses, and as with many old Gaelic songs, several variants of the tune exist. The one sung by Arthur is that sung in the Isle of Barra.
