O Cho Meallt Lyrics

When were young and of independent spirit
We started singing in Gaelic language
Making music, writing songs
Playing in a band for our livelihood
There is much deception in the world

We left the islands of the west
And started playing throughout Scotland
And all was well
Until the big man from London appeared
There is much deception in the world

"This music has potential
Why don't you consider letting me take control
And we will make great progress in the world
Just sign your name at the bottom of this page" There is much deception in the world

"I will not change the nature of your music
I will not alter your attitude to Gaelic language songs"
But all we heard at the end of the day
Were lies and empty words
There is much deception in the world

Now all of you that are young and of independent spirit
Take heed before you sign any contract
And keep a good look out for the `big' talkers
From a cold world that makes profit its only goal
There is much deception in the world.
