Translation of the song lyrics Ni Na La - Solas

Ni Na La (original)

Tá na caoirigh ag ithe an gheamhair
Tá na gamhna ag ól an bhainne
Prátaí síos gan díolachán
'S duine gan mheabhair na raghfá abhaile
Is deas an bhean í Siobhán óg
Gúna nua uirthi aníos ón siopa
Is breathnaím ar mo ghiní óir
'S í a' rince ar an mbord leis an phoc ar
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga
Don’t send me out into the dark
The night is cold and I’ll be perished
Come to bed with me awhile
We’ll have a roll around the blankets
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga
Buailim suas, buailim síos
Buailim cleamhan ar bhean a leanna
Cuirim giní óir ar an mbord
Is bím ag ól anseo go maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga
Tá mo bhróga i dtigh an óil
Tá mo stocaí i dtigh a' leanna
Tá na coiligh go léir ag glaoch
'S b'éigean domsa 'dhul abhaile
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Níl 'na lá, tá ar maidin
Níl 'na lá, tá 'na lá
Is bean a rá, is í ar fhaga

(translation)

The sheep are eating the winter
The calves are drinking the milk
Potatoes down without sales
You would not go home without a mind
Young Siobhán is a nice woman
A new dress up from the shop
I look at my golden genius
She's dancing on the table with the puck on
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
Don’t send me out into the dark
The night is cold and I’ll be perished
Come to bed with me awhile
We’ll have a roll around the blankets
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
I knock up, I knock down
I hit a woman on her beer woman
I put gold guinea on the table
I drink here until morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
My shoes are in the pub
My socks are in the beer house
All the cocks are crowing
And I had to go home
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
It's not a day, it's a day
It's not a day, it's a morning
It's not a day, it's a day
It's a woman to say, she's left
