Vair me oro van o, | |||
Vair me oro van ee, | |||
Vair me oru o ho, | |||
Sad am I without thee. | |||
When I’m lonely, dear white heart, | |||
Black the night or wild the sea, | |||
By love’s light my foot finds the old pathway to thee. | |||
Vair me oro van o, | |||
Vair me oro van ee, | |||
Vair me oru o ho, | |||
Sad am I without thee. | |||
Thou’rt the music of my heart, | |||
Harp of joy, o cruit mo chridh, | |||
Moon of guidance by night, | |||
Strength and light thou’rt me. | |||
Vair me oro van o, | |||
Vair me oro van ee, | |||
Vair me oru o ho, | |||
Sad am I without thee. | |||

Vair me oro van o,
Vair me oro van ee,
Vair me oru o ho,
Sad am I without thee.
When I’m lonely, dear white heart,
Black the night or wild the sea,
By love’s light my foot finds the old pathway to thee.
Vair me oro van o,
Vair me oro van ee,
Vair me oru o ho,
Sad am I without thee.
Thou’rt the music of my heart,
Harp of joy, o cruit mo chridh,
Moon of guidance by night,
Strength and light thou’rt me.
Vair me oro van o,
Vair me oro van ee,
Vair me oru o ho,
Sad am I without thee.
