| Agus rinne mise cleas
| And I did a trick
|
| Ag Tigh Mhic Ui Dhomhnaill aréir
| At Tigh Mhic Ui Dhomhnaill last night
|
| Is an tarna cleas ag teach
| The second trick is at home
|
| An Ósta lena thaobh
| The Host by his side
|
| An triú cleas ní bfhearr domh
| The third trick I do not prefer
|
| A chur le mo scéal
| Add to my story
|
| Is gur mhinicí domh bheith ag caitheamh
| I often smoke
|
| An dúthracht mhaith léi
| Her good dedication
|
| A Rí na bhfeart cad do chas
| King of miracles what your turn
|
| Ins a' dúiche seo mé?
| Am I in this district?
|
| 'S gur mó cailín deas a gheobhainn
| And I find a pretty girl
|
| Im' dhúthaigín beag féin
| I'm a little girl myself
|
| Gur casadh mé isteach mar a raibh searc
| That I turn in as was sweet
|
| Agus rún geal mo chléibh
| And the bright secret of my chest
|
| Is chuir an tseanbhean amach mé
| And the old woman sent me out
|
| Ag casadh an tsúgáinín féir
| Turning the grass rope
|
| Curfá:
| Chorus:
|
| Má bhíonn tú liom, bí liom
| If you are with me, be with me
|
| A stóirín mo chroí
| Sweetheart of my heart
|
| Ma bhíonn tú liom, bí liom
| If you are with me, be with me
|
| Os comhair an tsaoil
| In front of the world
|
| Ma bhíonn tú liom, bí liom
| If you are with me, be with me
|
| Gach orlach de do chroí
| Every inch of your heart
|
| Is é mo liom go fann nach liom
| It's me faintly not mine
|
| Dé Domhnaigh thú mar mhnaoí
| Sunday you as a woman
|
| Tá mo cheannsa liath le bliain
| My head has been gray for a year
|
| Is ní le críonnacht é
| It is not with wisdom
|
| Ní bheathaíonn na briathra
| The verbs do not feed
|
| Na bráithre pé sa domhan scéal é
| The brothers whatever in the story world
|
| Is táim i do dhiaidh le bliain
| I have been after you for a year
|
| Is gan fáil agam ort féin
| I can't find you
|
| Is gur geall le fia mé ar sliabh
| I'm almost a deer on a mountain
|
| Go mbeadh gáir chon ina dhéidh
| That would be followed by a dog laugh
|
| Do threabfainn, d’fhuirsinn
| I would plow, I would plow
|
| Chuirfinn síol ins a' chré
| I would plant a seed in the clay
|
| 'S do dhéanfainn obair shocair
| And I would do calm work
|
| Álainn, mhín, réidh
| Beautiful, gentle, smooth
|
| Do chuirfinn crú fén each
| I would put a shoe under the horse
|
| Is mire shiúil riamh ar féar
| It's never crazy to walk on grass
|
| Is ná héalaodh bean le fear
| A woman did not escape a man
|
| Ná déanfadh san féin | Do not do it yourself |
