B� e siud a� bhriogais uallach ho ri am b�
Briogais an duin� uasail ho ri am b�
Nuair a chuir mi suas i ho ri am b�
�S iomadh duine chual� e
          nach robh na c�ir!

B� e siud a� bhriogais chunnartach
          ho ri am b�
Nuair a chuir mi umam i ho ri am b�
Shaoil iad
           nach robh duin� innte ho ri am b�
�S nuair a chual �ad bruidhinn
          �s ann a thuirt �ad �O!�

Dh�fhoighnich �ad gu cothrom� dhiom
          ho ri am b�
�A bheil i �gad thoileachadh? ho ri am b�
�Na ghabh �ad do thomhas innt�?�
          ho ri am b�
Thuirt mi �Tha e coltach
          gun do ghabh is c�rr!�

Chaidh mi chun an t�illeir ho ri am b�
Feuch an toir e p�irt dhi ho ri am b�
Thuirt  e  �Airson p�igheadh ho ri am b�
�S ann a n� mi dh�
          dhe na th� innte chl�.�
They were the fine trousers,
A gentleman�s trousers.
When I pulled them up
Many people heard about it
         that weren�t there!

They were dangerous trousers!

When I put them on
People thought
         there was nobody in them,
And when they heard talking,
          everyone said �O!�

People asked me straight out:

�Do you really like them?
Did they take your measurements?"
        
I said, �It would seem
          that they did � and more!�

I went to the tailor
To see if he would take a bit out of them.
He said �For payment
I will make two
          out of the cloth that�s in them.�
A' bhriogais aig Domhnall
A' bhriogais uallach
A' bhriogais aig Mairead
This is a cracker! We often use it to finish our programme.
