Òran nan Raiders O, ’s ann tha na diùlnaich thall Air an taobh ud dhen a’ Bheinn: Fhuair iad fearann ann gun taing Bhon an aingidh rinn am mealladh. Fhad ’s a bhios an linn seo beò Bidh cuimhn’ air cainnteanas Lloyd George: Gheall e fearann do na seòid, Ach na thill beò dhiubh, ’s mòr an gearain. Nuair a thuig na gillean còir Gu robh an Government fo sgleò ’S nach robh cainnteanas Lloyd George Ach mar cheò a’ falbh à sealladh, Chruinnich iad is fhuair iad pìob, ’S am port a chluich iad Morair Sìm, ’S cha robh fear a bha san sgìr’ Nach robh cruinn aig roinn an fhearainn. Thàinig Raghnall le mòr uaill, Le each ’s le ghunna dol mun cuairt: ’S gann a bhruidhneadh e le gruaim – Thug e ’n dualchas ud bho sheanair. An Dotair Moireach, suas a chliù, Faic mar thagair e sa chùis: Thug e mach iad às an tùr Gu an saors’ a dheòin ’s a dh’aindeoin. Sguiridh mise nis dhem dhàn: ’S e mo dhùrachd sibh bhith slàn, Le bhur sabhail mhòra làn Leis a’ ghràn gu àird nan sparran. O, what heroes there are O, what heroes there are on that side of a’ Bheinn. No thanks to the wicked one who deceived them, they got land there. While this generation is alive Lloyd George’s speech will be remembered. He promised land to the heroes but those who returned alive have much to complain about. When the good lads realised that the government was suspect and that Lloyd George’s words were like mist disappearing out of sight, they gathered together and found a set of bagpipes. The tune they played was Morair Sim and there wasn’t a man in the district who wasn’t present at the division of the land. Arrogantly Raghnall, armed with a gun, appeared on horseback. So sullen was he, he could hardly speak – a trait inherited from his grandfather. Salute Dr Murray who prosecuted the matter. Despite everything, he managed to get them released from jail. I’ll now stop my song. My earnest hope is that you will all be well, with your great barns full to the rafters with grain.

Since being presented with her award as BBC Radio 2 Folk Singer of the Year 2008 by KT Tunstall, the Daily Telegraph's prediction that "Fowlis could be the first Scottish Gaelic crossover star in the making" has seemed increasingly prescient.Indeed Julie Fowlis is no stranger to awards and distinctions, winning Gaelic Singer Of The Year & Album Of The Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards 2007 and nominated for the third year in a row as BBC Radio 2 Folk Singer of the Year (the first ever Scottish Gaelic singer to win this prestigious award when given the title in 2008).
