Mo ghile mear(original) |
Curfa |
'Si mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear |
'Si mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear |
Suan na sian nm bhfuaireas fiin |
O chuaigh in gciin mo Ghile Mear |
Bmmse buan ar buairt gach ls |
Ag caoi go ctuaidh 's ag tuar na ndeor |
Mar scaoileadh uaim an buachaill beo |
'S na rmomhtar tuairisc uaidh mo bhrsn |
Nm lagnrann cuach go suairc ar nsin |
Is nml guth gadhair i gcoillte cns |
Na maidin shamhraidh i gcleanntaibh ceoi |
O d’imigh uaim an buachaill beo |
Marcach uasal uaibhreach sg |
Gas gan gruaim is suairce sns |
Glac is luaimneach luath i ngleo |
Ag teascadh an tslua 's ag tuairgan tria |
Seinntear stair ar chlairsigh cheoil |
Is liontair tainte cart ar bord |
Le hinntinn ard gan chaim gan cheo |
Chun saol is slainte d’fhail don leon |
Ghile mear 'sa seal faoi chumha |
'S Eire go liir faoi chlscaibh dubha |
Suan na sian nm bhfuaireas fiin |
O luaidh i gciin mo Ghile Mear |
Seal da rabhas im’mhaighdean shiimh |
'S anois im' bhaintreach chaite thriith |
Mo chiile ag treabhadh ne dtonn go trian |
De bharr na gcnoc is in imigiin |
English Translation (thanks to Marina Antolioni) |
He is my hero, my dashing darling |
He is my Caesar, dashing darling |
I’ve had no rest from forebodings |
Since he went far away my darling |
Every day I am constantly sad |
Weeping bitterly and shedding tears |
Because our lively lad has left us |
And no news from him is heard alas |
The cuckoo sings not pleasantly at noon |
And the sound of hounds is not heard in nut-filled woods |
Nor summer morning in misty glen |
Since he went away from me, my lively boy |
Noble, proud young horseman |
Warrior unsaddened, of most pleasant countenace |
A swift-moving hand, quick in a fight |
Slaying the enemy and smiting the strong |
Let a strain be played on musical harps |
And let many quarts be filled |
With high spirit without fault or mist |
For life and health to toast my lion |
Dashing darling for a while under sorrow |
And all Ireland under black cloaks |
Rest or pleasure I did not get |
Since he went far away my dashing darling |
For a while I was a gentle maiden |
And now a spent worn-out widow |
My spouse ploughing the waves strongly |
Over the hills and far away |
(translation) |
Curfa |
She's my hero, my Quick Boy |
She's my Caesar, Ghile Mear |
Suan na sian nm bhfuaireas fiin |
O my Gile Mear went away |
Bmmse permanent on worry every ls |
Crying bitterly and predicting tears |
As I released the living boy |
And don't tell me my report |
Nm lagnrann cuckoo lavishly on nsin |
Nml is the voice of a dog in cns woods |
Summer mornings in misty cliffs |
O the living boy has left me |
Proud noble rider sg |
Stem without gloom and tenderness etc |
Take it early in a hurry |
Truncating the crowd and predicting tria |
History is played on musical harps |
It is a tanned cart netting on board |
With a high mind without chame without fog |
For life and health for the lion |
A quick whirlwind in mourning |
All of Ireland is covered in black |
Suan na sian nm bhfuaireas fiin |
O mention in the song of my Ghile Mear |
Look at the gentle maidens |
And now I'm a worn-out widow of three |
My wife plowing the waves to a third |
Because of the hills and in imigiin |
