Lyrics
Ar chonnlaigh ghlais an Fhoghmhair
A stirn gur dhearc m uaim
Ba deas do chos I mbrig
'Sba r-dheas do leagan siubhail.
Do ghruaidh ar dhath na rsa
'Sdo chirnn bh fighte dlith
Monuar gan sinn 'are bpsadh
N’are brd luinge 'triall 'un siubhail.
T buachaill na h-ite seo
A' gartha 'gus ag irghe teann
Is lucht na gcochn rd
A' denamh fruis do mo chailn donn
D ngluaiseadh R na Spinne
Thar sile 's a shlighte cruinn
Bhrighfinn far is fsach
's bhinn ar limh le mo chailn donn.
Ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh'
D mbnn agus mo chailn donn
Gluais is tar a chad-searc
N go dtidh muid thar Ghaoth-Bearra 'nonn
Go sgartar n-a chile
Brr na gcraobh 's an eala n tuinn
N sgarfar sin chile
's nl ach baois dbh chur 'n mur gcionn.
English to the Above:
On the green stubble-fields of Autumn
I saw you, my sweetheart.
Nice were your feet in shoes
And wonderful your nimble gait.
Your two cheeks the color of roses
And your ringlets tightly plaited
Alas that we’re not married
Or on board ship sailing away
The boys around here are
Laughing and getting bold
And the people of the high straw?
Are making? Of my brown girl
If the King of Spain would
Go abroad with his assembled men
I would flatten grass and rank grass
And I would be with my brown girl
Buying cows at the fair
If I were? And my brown girl
Go and come first love
Until we go over to Gaoth-Bearra
Until we separate from each other
The tops of the branches and the swan from the waves?
That won’t separate us And it’s only folly for you to put it?
I wrote a letter
To my sweetheart and a sharp complaint
She sent it back to me That her heart was inside me.
Like the sweetest swan?
Finer than silk or bird feathers
Heavy is my sigh
When I think of being apart from her.
What I heard on Sunday
As conversation among the women
That she was going to be married
To a young man from the place.
Sweetheart take my advice
And this Autumn stay as you are
And don’t tell anyone, my love,
That you are my love.
