Fadó(original) |
| Anois i dtús an fhómhair |
| Is mé smaointiú siar |
| Ar an laethe aerach’i bhfad ó shoin |
| 'S mé a' súgradh le mo mhian |
| Bhí áilneacht aoibhinn ar a h-aghaidh |
| Is sólás in a croí |
| Ba sin fadó a bhuachaill |
| Ba sin fadó, fadó |
| I ndúbhlaíocht an gheimhridh |
| A casadh orm í |
| Go h-éascaí stuama 's muid linn fhéin |
| Thug sí domhsa lámh |
| Ghoid mé póg on bhainbíon óg |
| 'S thit mé léi i ngrá |
| Ba sin fadó a bhuachaill |
| Ba sin fadó, fadó |
| A bhuachaill óig |
| I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá |
| A bhuachaill óig |
| I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá |
| Nar dheas dá dtiochfadh an trá sin |
| Ar seal beag liom arís |
| Ó bhéarfainn dí gach uile ní |
| 'S mo dhílseacht léi go bráth |
| Tá'n saol seo cruaidh, tá'n saol seo corr |
| Tig scamall ar an ghrian |
| Ba deas fadó a bhuachaill |
| Ba deas fadó, fadó |
| A bhuachaill óig |
| I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá… |
| (translation) |
| Now in early autumn |
| I am thinking back |
| On the gay days ’long ago |
| As I play with my desire |
| There was a delightful beauty on her face |
| It is a consolation in her heart |
| That was a long time ago boy |
| That was a long, long time ago |
| In the gloom of winter |
| She turns me on |
| Easily prudent while we are alone |
| She gave me a hand |
| I stole a kiss from the young lady |
| And I fell in love with her |
| That was a long time ago boy |
| That was a long, long time ago |
| A young boy |
| Long before you saw the day |
| A young boy |
| Long before you saw the day |
| Wouldn't it be nice if that beach came |
| A little while with me again |
| Oh I would give her everything |
| My loyalty to her is forever |
| This world is hard, this world is odd |
| The sun is clouded |
| It used to be nice boy |
| It was nice a long, long time ago |
| A young boy |
| Long before you saw the day… |
