about

3. Chaidil Mi A-Raoir air an Airigh  


Lyrics and music based on a version collected by the School of Scottish Studies and sung by Captain Donald Joseph MacKinnon. Featured on the Tobar an Dualchais website with the following notes:


‘A waulking song about a girl who was sleeping out at the sheiling, missing her beloved and thinking that if he could come to her that high or low tides would not keep him. She sensed that someone was there and knew it wasn't her beloved. When he took the plaid from her she kicked him and sent him flying’
