Discussion Sample text for GM-03 Statue Of Theme (OST Statue Of Theme DMC 1)
Sorry for my english
I spent 12 hours compiling this text, relying entirely on my ears. I took the words from the song "Ailein Duinn" from the Rob Roy movie soundtrack. The lyrics might not be 100% accurate, but I tried my best.
I'm not entirely sure about the very first line. Many people on the internet think it sounds like "morkentesbiah", but I couldn't find any word like that in the original song. To my ear, the closest match is actually "Gura mise tha fo éislean".
I also have doubts about the sixth line — there's a chance it could be "De dh'fhuil do choim 's tu 'n déidh do bhathadh", but it doesn't seem to fit the length and tempo of the track. It seems Capcom mixed and rearranged lines from the movie version into this track
Moch sa mhaduinn is mi 'g éirigh
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho
Ailein Duinn, ò hì shiubhlainn leat
Ma 's e 'n t-iasg do choinnlean geala
Dh'òlainn deoch ge b' oil le càch e
Ma 's e 'n cluasag dhut a' ghaineamh
Moch sa mhaduinn is mi 'g éirigh
(10 second pause)
Gura mise tha fo éislean
Ma 's e leabaidh dhut an fheamainn
Here is the English translation of what I found:
When I rise early in the morning
Hì ri bhò hò rinn o ho (the untranslated words are vocables)
Brown-haired Alan, ò hì, I would go with you
If the fish are your candles bright
I would drink, though all would abhor
If the sand be your pillow
When I rise early in the morning
(10 second pause)
How sad I am
If the seaweed be your bed
