This is a loose translation of the
hymn. It's purpose is simply to give
the English sense of the words.

Molamaid Iosa
Le briathran neo-ghann,
A shaor sinn ‘s a shàbhail
Le bhàs air a' Chrann;
A dh'èirich on uaigh,
A' toirt buaidh air a' bhàs -
Mo chrìdh' tha cur thairis
Le beannachdan dhà.

Let us praise Jesus
lavishly with words
who redeemed and saved us
through his death on the Cross;
Who rose from the tomb
conquering death -
My heart is overflowing
with blessings on him.

O Iosa ar Dia Geal
A chruthaich an saogh' l,
A dh' fhuiling an Crann-ceusaidh
An èirig chlann-daoin ;
A dh' fhuiling a bhith reubte
Le reubairean dàn ,
‘S a dh' fhosgail dhuinn seòlaid
Gu beò-bhith nan gràs.

O Jesus, our Radiant God
who made the world,
who suffered crucifixion
on behalf of mankind;
Who endured intense suffering
(at the hands of) bold violent men
and who opened a passage for us
to the life of grace.

Nach prìsei1 an t-ionmhas
A dh' fhàg E dha shluagh,
Fhuil fhèin agus fheòil
Gus ar beò-bhith bhith buan;
Na earbaibh à mòrachd
‘S à sòlas an t-saogh il -
An coimeas ri ghlòir-san
Tha n t-òr agaibh faoin.

How priceless the legacy
he left for his people,
His own blood and flesh
that our life be eternal;
Don't trust in greatness
or in the pleasures of the world -
Compared to his glory
your gold is but dross
