Translation of the song lyrics Maire Mor - Dervish

Maire Mor (original)

Tá bean a’msa in Arainn Mhór
Is bean eile in Inis Bearachain
Ach mo ghrá i Maire Mhór
Is i an bhean is fearr ar fad acu
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Is grá mo chroí mo stóirin
Is tú nach ndearfadh tada liom
Is tú a chuirfeadh na fataí móra
I dtaisc ar leic an teallaigh dhom
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Ni le faochain na le barnigh
Na le blath na scailliún dearga
A mheall mise Maire Mhór
Ach le fuisce láidir Shasana
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Mura dtiocfaidh tu mar gheall tú
Go mbáitear ins sa gcladach thú
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
A bhfeicfeá Maire Mhór i
Dul sráideannaí na Gaillimhe
Gan falach ar a bráid
Ach cóta mór a' charraera
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Dá mbeinne 'n Arainn Mhór
Is mo bhád seoil bheith faoi lucht agam
Nach deas 'thornálfainn an ród
Ach Maire Mhór a bheith faoi deic agam
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tu?
Bhí yes aici 's bhí no aici
Is ar ndóigh bhí what not aici
Is murach lucht a' Bhéarla
Nach gcuirfinn Dandy cap airthi
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Mura dtiocfaidh tú mar gheall tú
Go mbáitear ins sa gcladach thú
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?
Mura dtiocfaidh tú mar gheall tú
Go mbáitear ins sa gcladach thú
Is oró Mhaire Mhór
Is a Mhaire Mhór a dtiocfaidh tú?

Maire Mor (translation)

I have a wife in Arranmore
She is another woman in Inis Bearachain
But my love in Maire Mhór
She is the best woman of them all
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
My sweetheart is the love of my heart
You would say nothing to me
You are the one who planted the big potatoes
Deposited on the hearthstone for me
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
Not with whiting or barnacles
Na with the blossom of the red scallops
Which attracted me to Maire Mhór
But with a strong English whiskey
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
If you don't come because of you
That you are drowned in the shore
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
Would you see Maire Mhór in
Going through the streets of Galway
Not hiding from her
But the carrier's big coat
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
If I were in Arranmore
I have my sailboat under load
Wouldn't it be nice to turn the road
But I have Maire Mhór under deck
It's Mary's gold
Will you come, O Great Mary?
She had yes and she had no
Of course she had what not
It's not for the English
I wouldn't cap Dandy on her
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
If you don't come because of you
That you are drowned in the shore
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
If you don't come because of you
That you are drowned in the shore
It's Mary's gold
Where will you come, Mary?
