|
A chinn duibh dhílis dhílis dhílis |
My sweet, sweet, sweet dark-haired love |
Cuir do lámh mhín gheal tharam anall |
Put your pale, soft hand around me now |
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air |
Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme |
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá |
It is a heartless man that would not love you |
|
|
Tá cailín' ar an mbaile seo'ar buile 's ar buaireamh |
The girls of this town are furious |
Ag tarraingt a ngruaige 'sá ligean le gaoith |
Pulling their hair and letting it blow in the wind |
Ar mo shonsa, an scafaire is fearr ins na tuatha |
For me, the best man in the countryside |
Ach do thréigfinn an méid sin ar rún dil mo chroí |
But I would dump them all for my heart's love |
|
|
Is cuir do cheann dílis dílis dílis |
Lay your sweet, sweet, sweet head |
Cuir do cheann dílis tharam anall |
Lay your sweet head on me |
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air |
Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme |
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá |
It is a heartless man that would not love you |
