A Missing iPhone

after the Gaelic Translations of Alexander Carmichael

from Carmina Gadelica

Na ho I eadh ho ho ill a bhi,

Na ho ibh o ha o ri ho a ro,

No ho hao ri o bho learthag

I lost my lovely iphone

   On Friday just gone

It was no bigger than a kit-kat

   And it was better than a Wii

It fell among the bracken

   And I have not found it yet

I am bored of looking for it

   At the bottom of the hill

I wouldn’t loan it to anyone

   Not even my sister

Or to Big Eck

   Even if he asked, he would not get it

Na ho I eadh ho ho ill a bhi,

Na ho ibh o ha o ri ho a ro,

No ho hao ri o bho learthag
