An excellent song by Runrig that's relatively easy to play even for beginners as there 
are only 4 chords used (C, G, D, Em)

(Translation:
Gaidhlig: 'Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o'
English: 'There's a new grass growing on the top of the soil'

(Just singing in the verses. After the first two choruses, instruments stop playing and 
there is only singing, apart from the 3 drum beats used on 'Tha feur ur air bar an 
tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o' line.

So we tend and we nurtur all the seeds we've sown
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

till the fields turn ripe and a harvest stored
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

it's much greater than we may ever know

Chorus:
Back on the stamping ground
to where it all began
Back on the stamping ground
We come again
