Lyrics of Cad E Sin Don Te Sin - Tri Yann

Cad E Sin Don Te Sin (original)

Má théimse chuig áirnéal is rince is spórt
Chuig aonach is rásaí's gach cruinniú dan tsórt
Má tím daoine súgach's má bhím súgach leo
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó?
Má tím daoine súgach's má bhím súgach leo
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó?
Má tím daoine súgach's má bhím súgach leo
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó?
Má théim'na coille craobhaí, 'cruinniú sméara nó cnó
'Bhaint ulla de ghéaga nó bhuachailleacht bó;
Má shínim seal uaire faoi chrann' deanamh só
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó …
Chuaigh mé chun aonaigh is dbiol mé mo bhó
Ar chúig phunta airgid’s ar giní bhuí óir;
Má ólaim an t-airgead's má bhronnaim an t-ór…
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó …
Deir daoine go bhfuil mé gan rath is gan dóigh
Gan earra ná eadáil, gan bólacht nó stór
Má tá mise sásta' mo chónai i gcró…
0, cad é sin don té nach mbaineann sin dó …

(translation)

If I go to a corner that is dance and sport
To all fairs and races and all such meetings
If I'm merry people's if I'm merry with them
0, what's that for the one that does not apply to him?
If I'm merry people's if I'm merry with them
0, what's that for the one that does not apply to him?
If I'm merry people's if I'm merry with them
0, what's that for the one that does not apply to him?
If I go to a grove of trees, gather berries or nuts
'Wool removal of limbs or cow herding;
If I sign a spell off under a tree 'do luxury
0, what's that for the unrelated…
I went to a fair and drank my cow
For five pounds of silver’s on a yellow gold guinea;
If I drink the money's if I donate the gold…
0, what's that for the unrelated…
People say I'm unsuccessful and hopeless
No goods or possessions, no cattle or treasure
If I'm happy to live in a cage…
0, what's that for the unrelated…
