Chorus:
Cumaibh suas a, suas a suas i;
Cumaibh suas a' Ghàidhlig
Verses:
1. Deoch slàint' nan daoine furanach
Na Gàidheil rìoghail urramach
Tha cruinn a nochd mar bhuineadh dhaibh,
De dhuinealas gur làn iad.
2. Na daoine calma, cruadalach
A leag a' choille ghruamach dhuinn
Bu churaidhnean's daoin' uasal iad
Nan gluasad is nan nàdar.
