Lyrics: | English Translation: |
I would I were on yonder hill It's there I'd sit and cry my fill And every tear would turn the mill |
|
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán | And may you go safely, my darling |
Chorus (after each verse): | |
Siúl siúl siúl a rún | Go, go, go, my love |
Siúl go socair 'is siúl go ciúin | Go quietly and go peacefully |
Siúl go doras agus éalaigh liom | Go to the door and fly with me |
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán | And may you go safely, my darling |
I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel I'll sell my only spinning wheel For to buy my love a coat of steel |
|
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán | And may you go safely, my darling |
I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red And 'round the world I'll beg for bread Until my parents would wish me dead |
|
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán | And may you go safely, my darling |
And now my love has gone to France To try his fortune to advance If he ne'er came back, there'll be but a chance |
|
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán | And may you go safely, my darling |
