Lyrics
Tá ba agam ar shliabh
'S nil duine 'gam na ndiadh
Ach mé do mo bhuaidhreadh leofa
Bíodh idir mise is Dia
Má's orthu 'tá mo thriall
Is Bhain siad mo chiall go mór uaim
'Sí Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna í
'Sí Moll Dubh an Earraigh í
'Sí Moll Dubh is deirge ná'n rósa
'S dá bhfaighinnse féin mo roghainn
De mhná óga deasa 'n domhain
'Sí Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna ab fhearr liom
Mise bheith gan mhaoi
Feasta choíche ní bhim
Is Moll dubh bheith I dtús a h-óige
Och, is fann guth an éin
A labhras leis féin
Ar thulaigh nó ar thaobh na monadh
Is ag Moll dubh a' ghleanna
Tá mo chroí-se I dtaiscí
'S í nach bhfuair guth na náire
Is go ceillí, múinte, cneasta
A dúirt sí liom ar maidin
«Ó imigh uaim 's nach pill go brách orm»
Níl'n óganach geanúil
Ó Bhaile Átha Cliath go Gaillimh
Is timpeall go h-Umhaill Uí Mháinnle
Nach bhfuil a dtriall ulig 'na ghleanna
Ar eacraidh slime sleamhainne
I ndúil leis an bhean dubh a b 'aille
Lyrics translation
There was I on a mountain
'S not one 'gam of the following
But I for my bhuaidhreadh them
Either between I am God
If's them 'is my journey
Is they Related to my sense that a big from me
She's Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna í
She's Moll Dubh of Spring she
'She Moll Black is redder than'n rósa
'S two more ruddy my choice
Of young women nice 'n deep
She's Moll Dubh a' Ghleanna would I
Yours be without mhaoi
Henceforth never not I
It Is a Mass of black being In the beginning of her childhood
Och, the feeble voice of the birds
To laurel with yourself
On thulaigh or on the part of the monadh
It Is at Moll black' glen
There are my heart-se In deposits
'S not got the voice of shame
Is that ceillí, politely, honestly
She said to me this morning
"Depart from me 's do not come again I»
No'their young people lovable
From Dublin to Galway
It Is around that h-Umhaill O Mháinnle
Not going ulig 'the glen
On eacraidh slime sleamhainne
In metallic with the black woman to b 'cliff
