Lyrics
Tá mo chroí-se go tláth lag
'S i lár mo chuid saothair
Tagann lán tocht im chléibhse
Cé nár mhéin liom é rá
Tá an díbirt i ndán dom
Ó bháin bheannaibh Éireann
Is fánach mo shaolsa
'S is déarach mo chás
Is cuimhin liom an tráth
Úd a ghrá ghil na n-ae istigh
Thugas grá searc is géilleadh
Dod chaomh roisc thar chách
A Rí ghil na n-árann
Dob fhearr liom go n-éagfainn
I láthair mo ghaolta
Is mo bhuachaillín bán
Tá críoch Inis Failbhe
Go lán fad' i ndaor bhroid
Go cráite 's go céasta
I ngéibhinn na namhad
Nó an fíor nach foláir duit
Go brách bheith go déarach
A oileáinín bhig mhaorga
Na naomh is na mbard
Ó guímse go hard
Ar an Ard Athair Naofa
Chun ár agus léir-scrios
Do dhéanamh ar Sheán
Do dhíbir na táinte
Thar sáile 'na gcéandta
'S chuir fán orm féinig
Óm' bhuachaillín bán
Lyrics translation
My heart has-se that tláth weak
'S in the middle of my labor
Comes full mattress im chléibhse
While not humor I say
The expulsion in store for me
From white bheannaibh Ireland
It Is trivial my life
'S is déarach my case
I remember at the time
Ca love ghil of eu interior
Indicated love love is surrender
Thy chaomh roisc over all
A King ghil of arran
The one I would prefer that éagfainn
In the presence of my relatives
My little boy white
The territory has Told Failbhe
Full length' in ndaor bhroid
That plagued that's torture
Confine the enemy
Or the real you need
Ever have that déarach
To oileáinín little more
The st is the bardic
From guímse high
On the High Holy Father
To our and all-clear
For make John
For banished the táinte
Abroad 'the gcéandta
'S put about me to him
Ohms' little boy white
