An Giogog(original) |
| Bliain mhór sa taca seo ba deas mo chulaith éadaigh, |
| Ba lúfar éadrom aigeanta a dhéanfainn bean a bhréagadh, |
| Ach shantaigh mise an ghiobóg mar bhí cupla bó mar spré aici, |
| Is d’fhág sí ar an anás mé is mo chraiceann gheal gan léine |
| Má bhí culaith mhaith an uair sin ort, b’fhéidir nár leat féin í |
| Ní raibh tú pósta seachtain go raibh fear na comharsa 'hiarraidh; |
| Dhíol tú mo chuid eallaigh, le sin agus tuilleadh réiteach, |
| Is d’fhág tú ar an anás mé is gan snáithe orm san oíche |
| A bhuachaillí, a bhuachaillí, an méid agaibh atá gan pósadh, |
| Ná santaigí na giobógaí de réir mar a bíonn siad cóirithe, |
| Nó b’fhearr duit cailín glan agat a scuabfadh amach i gcónaí, |
| Ná luathra buí na seachtaine á cur amach Dé Domhnaigh |
| A cailíní, 's a cailíní, an meid a posadh |
| Dé Domhnaigh |
| i gcónaí |
| (translation) |
| A great year in this support my costume was nice, |
| It would be a light-hearted agility that would seduce a woman, |
| But I coveted the gibbon because she had a few cows as a dowry, |
| She left me with anguish and my fair skin without a shirt |
| If you wore a good suit then, you may not own it |
| You weren't married a week that the neighbor's man was missing; |
| You sold my cattle, with that and more solutions, |
| You left me in the lurch with no thread at night |
| Boys, boys, how many of you are unmarried, |
| Do not sanitize the gibbons as they are dressed, |
| Or you would rather have a clean girl who always sweeps out, |
| Don't miss out on the yellow rush of the week on Sunday |
| Girls, and girls, what to marry |
| Sunday |
| always |
