Albany [English translation]

(Albany, high up in the Norton Green mountains

Albany, your walls used to be my home

Albany, beloved castle of my ancestors

If only I could see you again one more time)

This is Gordon McKenzie's lament

His song of Albany

His clan's proud castle

That he would eventually lose for good

Albany, high up in the Norton Green mountains

Albany, your walls used to be my home

Albany, beloved castle of my ancestors

If only I could see you again one more time

Charles and Gordon were brothers

Sang the same songs when they were children

And hunted together in the woods

But brotherly love and friendship

Eventually turned into bitter enmity

When they realized they were in love with the same girl

Albany, high up in the Norton Green mountains

Albany, your walls used to be my home

Albany, beloved castle of my ancestors

If only I could see you again one more time

(Ask about Albany

And they're gonna tell you

Every room used to be

Filled with life and light

Go see Albany today

With its gloomy towers

No matter on which door you knock

They won't open)

Charles and Gordon were brothers

They say one stabbed the other

But nobody witnessed it was a fair fight

Gordon had to run away like a murderer

No McKenzie ever forgave him

So he's roaming the land aimlessly, unable to find peace

Albany, high up in the Norton Green mountains

Albany, your walls used to be my home

Albany, beloved castle of my ancestors

If only I could see you again one more time

Oh ho oh ho ho, Albany

(Albany, high up in the Norton Green mountains)

High up in the Norton Green mountains

(Albany, your walls used to be my home)

Oh Albany, yes, your walls used to be my home

(Beloved castle of my ancestors)

Oh my Albany

(If only I could see you again one more time)

If only I could see you again one more time
