Lyrics of Dúlaman - Celtic Woman

Dúlaman (original)

A 'níon mhín ó, sin anall na fir shúirí
A mháithairin mhín ó, cuir na roithléan go dtí mé
Dúlamán na binne buí, dúlamán Gaelach
Dúlamán na farraige, b’fhearr a bhí in Éirinn
Tá ceann buí óir ar an dúlamán gaelach
Tá dhá chluais mhaol ar an dúlamán maorach
Bróga breaca dubha ar an dúlamán gaelach
Tá bearéad agus triús ar an dúlamán maorach
Góide a thug na tíre thú?
arsa an dúlamán gaelach
Ag súirí le do níon, arsa an dúlamán maorach
Rachaimid chun Niúir leis an dúlamán gaelach
Ceannóimid bróga daora ar an dúlamán maorach
Ó chuir mé scéala chuici, go gceannóinn cíor dí
'Sé'n scéal a chuir sí chugam, go raibh a ceann cíortha
Cha bhfaigheann tú mo 'níon, arsa an dúlamán gaelach
Bheul, fuadóidh mé liom í, arsa an dúlamán maorach
Dúlamán na binne buí, dúlamán Gaelach
Dúlamán na binne buí, dúlamán Gaelach
Dúlamán na farraige, b’fhearr a bhí, b’fhearr a bhí
Dúlamán na binne buí, dúlamán Gaelach
Dúlamán na farraige, b’fhearr a bhí, b’fhearr a bhí
B’fhearr a bhí in Éirinn
Oh gentle daughter, here come the wooing men
Oh gentle mother, put the wheels in motion for me
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best in all of Ireland
There is a yellow gold head on the Gaelic seaweed
There are two blunt ears on the stately seaweed
The Irish seaweed has beautiful black shoes
The stately seaweed has a beret and trousers
«What are you doing here?"says the Irish seaweed
«At courting with your daughter,"says the stately seaweed
I would go to Niúir with the Irish seaweed
«I would buy expensive shoes,"said the Irish seaweed
I spent time telling her the story that I would buy a comb for her
The story she told back to me, that she is well-groomed
«Oh where are you taking my daughter?"says the Irish seaweed
«Well, I’d take her with me,"says the stately seaweed
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
The best in all of Ireland

(translation)

Oh sweet girl, here come the courting men
Gentle mother oh, send the reels to me
Yellow seaweed, Irish seaweed
Seaweed was the best in Ireland
The Irish seaweed has a golden yellow head
The stately seaweed has two blunt ears
Black speckled shoes on the Irish seaweed
The stately seaweed has a beret and a trident
What did the country give you?
said the Irish seaweed
Flirting with your daughter, says the majestic seaweed
We will go to Newry with the Irish seaweed
We will buy expensive shoes on the stately seaweed
Oh I sent her a message, that I would buy her a comb
The story she sent me was that her head was combed
You will not find my daughter, says the Irish seaweed
Well, I'll kidnap her with me, says the stately seaweed
Yellow seaweed, Irish seaweed
Yellow seaweed, Irish seaweed
Seaweed, it was better, it was better
Yellow seaweed, Irish seaweed
Seaweed, it was better, it was better
It was better in Ireland
Oh gentle daughter, here come the wooing men
Oh gentle mother, put the wheels in motion for me
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best in all of Ireland
There is a yellow gold head on the Gaelic seaweed
There are two blunt ears on the stately seaweed
The Irish seaweed has beautiful black shoes
The stately seaweed has a beret and trousers
"What are you doing here?" Says the Irish seaweed

Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed
Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best
The best in all of Ireland
