Celtic Folk Chi Mi'n Geamhradh - By Runrig

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chi mi'n Geamhradh = I see winter, by Runrig (C & R MacDonald)
(Runrig are the best selling band in Scotland. Their concerts sell out in hours)
Chi mi'n Geamhradh
Chi mi'n Geamhradh a's a' ghaoith
Chan eil an sneachd 'fada bhuainn
Sgo\than dorch 's na craobhan ru\isgt
Tha an oidhche nochd fuar

    (I see winter in the wind
     the snow is not far from us
     dark clouds and naked trees
     the night is so cold)
Shaoillin fhe/in gur ann an de
Bha teas an t-samhraidh 'gar leaghadh
Fad an fheasgair air an du\n
'S tu laighe leisg ri mo thaobh
    (It seems like yesterday,
     We bathed in the warmth of summer
     As you lazed by my side
     Throughout the afternoon on the dune)
Chorus:
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn suiridhe
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn ga\ir
'S iomadh oidhch 'a bhithinn a' smuaintinn
Gum bitheadh tu comhla rium gu bra\th
      (Many a night we courted
       Many a night we laughed
       And many a night I thought
       That you would remain with me forever)
Chan fhan a ghrian fad na bliadhna
Cha sheas an uair mar a tha i
Dh'fhalbh thusa gu'n a' cheo\
'S dh'fha\g thu mi le mo gheamhradh
      (The sun would not hold all year long
       time would not stand still
       You left me for the mists
       Leaving me with my winter)
Chorus:
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn suiridhe
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn ga\ir
'S iomadh oidhch 'a bhithinn a' smuaintinn
Gum bitheadh tu comhla rium gu bra\th
      (Many a night we courted
       Many a night we laughed
       And many a night I thought
       That you would remain with me forever)
Chi mi'n Geamhradh a's a' ghaoith
Chan eil an sneachd 'fada bhuainn
Sgo\than dorch 's na craobhan ru\isgt
Tha an oidhche nochd fuar

    (I see winter in the wind
     the snow is not far from us
     dark clouds and naked trees
     the night is so cold)
Chorus:
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn suiridhe
'S iomadh oidhch 'a rinn sinn ga\ir
'S iomadh oidhch 'a bhithinn a' smuaintinn
Gum bitheadh tu comhla rium gu bra\th
      (Many a night we courted
       Many a night we laughed
       And many a night I thought
       That you would remain with me forever)
Co\mhla rium gu bra\th
(with me forever)
