To America We Go

ëS e

Ceap Breatuinn tir mo, ghráidh

TÏr nan craobh ë s nan beanntan árd, ë

S e Ceap Breatuinn tir mo, ghráidh

TÏr ëas áillidh leinn air thalamh. (It is Cape Breton the land of my love, The land of the trees and high mountains, It is Cape Breton the land of my love, The most beautiful land on earth to us.) (From the chorus of a song composed by Dan Alex MacDonald, Framboise, Cape Breton)

Reel: A null thar nan eileanan , gu dhí

Ameireaga gun teid sinn,

A null thar nan eileanan , gu dhí

Ameireaga gun teid sinn,

A null thar nan eileanan , gu dhí

Ameireaga gun teid sinn,

A null rathad

Shasuinn agus dhachaidh rathad

Eirinn. (Over across the islands, to America we will go, Over across the islands, to America we will go, Over across the islands, to America we will go, Over by way of England and home by way of Ireland)
