Song to Cape Breton
By: Dan Alex MacDonald

Chorus:
Cape Breton is the land I love,
Land of trees and high mountains;
Cape Breton is the land I love,
To me, the most beautiful land on
earth.

¹ Because I now live
In the land of the mountains;
Though my Gaelic is poor,
I will fashion a verse to the land of
the glens.

² I can not rightly describe
Nor can I put into words,
The fullness of beauty and glory
That exists in this land of blessings.

Oran do Cheap Breatuinn
By: Dan Alex MacDonald

Chorus.
‘S e Ceap Breatuinn tir mo
ghraidh,
Tìr nan craobh's nam beanntan àrd
'Se Ceap Breatuinn tìr mo graidh
Tir is aillidh leinn air thalamh.

¹ Bho’n a tha mi anns an am
Comhnaidh ann an tir nam beann,
‘S ged a tha mo Ghaidhlig gann,
Ni mi rann do thir nan gleannan.

² Chan urrainn dhomhsa chur air
doigh
No chur sios le briathran beoil,
Na tha do mhaise agus do ghloir
Comhnaidh ann an tir nam
beannachd.
