12 Days - 7th & 8th days of Christmas
It just occurred to me that I forgot yesterday (wasn't feeling well, bha òrrais agam).
Air an t-seachdamh là den Nollaig, chuir m' eudail thugam fhìn
seachd mnathan uasal, sia seòid le sùrdag, còig cailleachan-oidhche
ceithir cuthagan, trì cearcan-fraoich, dà chalman
agus smeòrach le ceileireadh binn.
Air an ochdamh là den Nollaig, chuir m' eudail thugam fhìn
ochd òigearan uallach, seachd mnathan uasal, sia seòid le sùrdag
còig cailleachan-oidhche, ceithir cuthagan, trì cearcan-fraoich
dà chalman agus smeòrach le ceileireadh binn.
On the seventh day of Christmas my sweetheart sent to me
seven noble ladies, six handsome heroes, five wise old owls, four cuckoo birds, three moorhens, two turtledoves and a song thrush sweetly singing.
On the eighty day of Christmas my sweetheart sent to me
eight comely lads, seven noble ladies, six handsome heroes, five wise owls, four cuckoo birds, three moor hens, two turtledoves and a song thrush sweetly singing.
I can't really think of an illustration for this, but perhaps a list (or two).
