No, Sassann means England and sassanaich means Englishman in Gaelic, similiarly Alba is Scotland and Albanaich means Scotman.
I think the term sassanach to describe a lowlander is meant to be an insult rather a proper description. Sassanach for an englishman is the proper translation.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
