[intro]
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
[verse 1]
growin’ up in scotland in the ’90s
i was heir to the crises of a century or more
a language beaten from the tongues of our young
and our heroes unsung with a past they ignore
gàidhlig luachmhar cainnt mo luaidh~sa
roots deep down entwined into the core
the heart and soul of the land they stole
a way to control what we were told from before
an t~iomadh cràdhlot fraoch ga dheargnachadh
le fìor~fhuil ghàidhealach nan laoch air garbhlach
beigleidean fuileach ~ na h~uile gam marbhadh
gun trocair gun ònar b’ e sin òrdugh nan sеarbhag
and then the peoplе were exiled for textiles
lies and empire set fire to shame
na h~albannaich dalma a shaltraich na mealltairean
fealltach ‘s iad gun sealladh air cothrom na fèinn’
[chorus]
can you hear the voices
speak out so many generations on?
can you hear the truth now?
how they stole our tongue and made us feel so wrong
you can hear the music
when the piper plays or when i sing my song
but will you the message
of how they made us feel like we don’t belong?
[verse 2]
written out of history, scotland’s sons
the forgotten ones, it’s no mystery they taught us none
of these truths about this land
and how i’m speakin’ a language
that the people don’t understand
a’ tearbadh gun mhearachd ac’
throimh bheuc~thonnaibh na gailinne
len lannan ‘s iad gu dealarach a sheasadh iad gu dearbhadh
am fearalas gun chearbachd san treas a thug ar seanairean
na garbh~bhuilean marbhtach an
treubh a bha gun fhannachadh
seas do chànan ‘ill ‘oìg na leig air dìochuimhn’
na daoine bhon d’thàinig thu làidir nan cuid~ghnìomhan
‘s mar chuirte a ruaig air na na daoine thuinich rìamh
ann an dùthaich nan laoch do
ghach taobh gun d’ rinn iad triall ann
it’s all still relevant, every single element
truly compelling, i’m not tellin’ it for the h~ll of it
past has a funny way of speakin’ to the present
time to show respect, time to learn the lesson
[chorus]
can you hear the voices
speak out so many generations on?
can you hear the truth now?
how they stole our tongue and made us feel so wrong
you can hear the music
when the piper plays or when i sing my song
but will you hear the message
of how they made us feel like we don’t belong?
can you hear the voices
speak out so many generations on?
can you hear the truth now?
how they stole our tongue and made us feel so wrong
you can hear the music
when the piper plays or when i sing my song
but will you hear the message
of how they made us feel like we don’t belong?
[verse 3]
tired of seein’ my culture always getting downplayed
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
you’d never know by what they show in how it’s portrayed
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
the matter at hand of stolen land goin’ unsaid
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
fakers makin’ out that it’s good so they can get paid!
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
thàinig naigheachd orm an dè
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
sgeul tha fìor nach fhaod mi clèith
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
silochd nan gàidheal gun àit’fon ghrèin
(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
cogrich nar dùthaich fhèin ~ mar
oisein truagh an dèidh na fèinn’
[chorus]
can you hear the voices
speak out so many generations on?
can you hear the truth now?
how they stole our tongue and made us feel so wrong
you can hear the music
when the piper plays or when i sing my song
but will you hear the message
of how they made us feel like we don’t belong?
can you hear the voices
speak out so many generations on?
can you hear the truth now?
how they stole our tongue and made us feel so wrong
you can hear the music
when the piper plays or when i sing my song
but will you hear the message
of how they made us feel like we don’t belong?
[outro]

(hò rò ‘s na hùg i bho rò)
(hò rò eile ‘s hò ill o rò)
