[Rann 2] Gluaisidh sinn. Mar a ghluais iad fhèin. Gun cheist. [Rann 3] Gaoth air ar druim. An talamh fo ar bonn. Is leòr sin dhuinn. [Rann 4] Chan eil ainm ann. Chan eil sgeul ann. Chan eil ach ceum ann. [Cor] Ceum nan clach. Ceum gun fhuaim. Ceum fhathast. [Rann 5] A’ chlann a’ gluasad. Gun fhios carson. Ach a’ gluasad fhèin. [Cor] Ceum nan clach. Fo anail na talmhainn. Tha sinn ann fhathast. Ceum air clach. Clach fo chois. Chan eil guth ann. --- The Steps of Stones English translation (reference only, non-poetic) [Verse 1] Step on stone. Stone under foot. There is no voice. [Verse 2] We will move. As they themselves moved. Without question. [Verse 3] Wind at our back. The earth under our sole. That is enough for us. [Verse 4] There is no name. There is no story. There is only a step. [Chorus] Step of the stones. Soundless step. Step still. [Verse 5] The children are moving. Not knowing why. But moving themselves. [Chorus] Step of the stones. Under the breath of the earth. We are here still. Step on stone. Stone under foot. There is no voice.
