Thank you, been looking for this on here for ages. Absolutely stunning arrangement of this waulking song!

FYI -- It also goes by the first line: "Dh'eirich mi moch madainn Cheitein" (The Scottish Gaelic singer Kathleen MacInnes sings a wonderful version of this also, with slightly different lyrics)

Gives me goosebumps!

Been looking for this forever! Thank you so much! I couldn't remember what album it was on. I played this on repeat for a very long time when I was in high school!

Fail ill é hill ù hill ó Hiuraibh ó na hó ro éile Fail ill é hill ù hill ó. Dh'éirich mi moch madainn Chéitein, Mas moch an-diugh bu mhuich' an dé e. 'S binn a' chòisir rinn mi éisdeachd. Smeòraichean air bhàrr nan geugan, Uiseagan os cionn an t-sléibhe. 'S bòidhche fhiamh 's a' ghrian ag éirigh, Madainn chiùin fo dhriùchd nan speuran, Bric air linneachan a' leumraich. Leannaidh slàinte agus éibhneas Riùthasan a bhios moch ag éirigh. translation I arose early on a May morning. If early today it was earlier yesterday. Sweet was the choir I listened to, thrushes on the tops of the branches, larks above the moor. Beautiful is the prospect, with the sun rising, a calm morning under the dew of the heavens, trout leaping in the pools. There will follow health and happiness for those who rise early
