Cad É Sin Don Té Sin?(original) |
Chuaigh mé 'un aonaigh 's dhíol mé mo bhó |
Ar chúig phunta airgid 's ar ghiní bhuí óir |
Má ólaim an t-airgead is má bhronnaim an t-ór |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má ólaim an t-airgead is má bhronnaim an t-ór |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má théim 'na choilleadh chraobhaigh 'cruinniú sméara nó cnó |
A baint ullaí do ghéaga nó a buachailleacht bó |
Má shínim seal uaire faoi chrann a dhéanamh só |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má shínim seal uaire faoi chrann a dhéanamh só |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má théimse chuig airnéal 's rince 's spórt |
Chuig aonaigh nó rásaí, 's gach cruinniú den tseoirt |
Má bhíonn daoine súgach, 's má bhím súgach leo |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má bhíonn daoine súgach, 's má bhím súgach leo |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Deir daoine go bhfuil mé gan rath is gan dóigh |
Gan earraí, gan éadal, gan bólacht nó stór |
Ach má tá mise sásta mo chónaí i gcró |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
Má tá mise sásta mo chónaí i gcró |
Ó cad é sinn don te sin nach mbaineann sin dó? |
(translation) |
I went to the fair and sold my cow |
For five pounds of silver and a yellow guinea of gold |
If I drink the money I give the gold |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If I drink the money I give the gold |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If I go to the forest of branches 'gathering of berries or nuts |
Dehorning your limbs or cowering |
If I extend an hour's spell under a tree it becomes a luxury |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If I extend an hour's spell under a tree it becomes a luxury |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If I go to school and dance and sport |
To fairs or races, and all meetings of the sort |
If people are juicy, and if I am juicy with them |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If people are juicy, and if I am juicy with them |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
People say I'm hopeless and hopeless |
No goods, no goods, no cattle or store |
But if I am happy I live in a hole |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
If I am happy I live in peace |
Oh what are we to that hot one that doesn't belong to him? |
