Nach Neonach Neisd A Tha E - Isn’t It Strange Now Songtext / Lyric

Often it’s people that make places
and when someone special is not around any more
the place never quite seems to be the same

Nach neonach neisd a tha e a bhi seòladh air ais a rithis
Cha bhi thusa mar a b'abhaist nam choinneamh air a chidhe
'S cha d'fhiach an teine oidhche gun do chòmhradh 's do ghair
Chan fhaic mi thu a rithis.

Ged tha an là cho buaidheach, 's ged tha an t-àite cho breagha
'S ged tha a'ghrian a'deàrrsadh, 's ged tha a'mhuir cho ciuin
'S ged tha mi mar an fhaoileag, cho sona 's cho saor
Chan fhaic mi thu a rithis.

Atharrachaidh an t-saoghal mar a dh'atharraicheas an t-sìde
Aon là tha a'ghlainne 'g eirigh 's an ath là tha i sios
Chunnaic mi an t-uisge 's chunnaic mi a'ghrian
Ach chan fhaic sinn do leithid a rithis.

Isn't it strange now
Sailing back here again
You will not be here as usual
Meeting me on the pier
Of what worth the night fire
Without your conversation and laughter
I'll not see you again

Although the day is beautiful
And although the place is at it's best
Although the sun is shining
Although the seas are calm
And although I am like the seagull
Carefree and unconcerned
I'll not see you again

The world will change
Just like the weather
One day the barometer is rising
The next day it is falling
And I have seen the rain
And I have seen the sun
But we'll never see the like of you again
