English Translation
 
There's a darkness on the Island of Skye tonight
The colours are clearing away from the hills
A shadow is falling down from the Storr
Like your dark hair sweeping across your face

Chorus
Horo Mary o
Horo Mary o
Horo Mary o
I miss you. 

What use is the well without water
What use is the body without the heart
If I had the power of this landscape in my hands
We'd be together again on the island
