|
Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
|
Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
|
Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
|
Is na caoirigh beaga bána |
And the little white sheep |
| |
|
|
Curfá: |
Chorus (after each verse): |
|
Is ó gairm, gairm thú |
And oh I call, I call you |
|
Is grá mo chroí gan chealg thú |
You are my heart's love without deceit |
|
Is ó gairm, gairm thú |
And oh I call, I call you |
|
Is tú peata beag do mháthair |
You are your mother's little pet |
| |
|
|
Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
|
Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
|
Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
|
Is fáilte ó mo ghrá geal |
And welcome from by fair love |
| |
|
|
Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
|
Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
|
Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
|
Is caitín ó mo mháthair |
And a kitten from my mother |
| |
|
|
Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
|
Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
|
Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam |
'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
|
Is thabharfainn do mo stór í |
I would give it to my darling |
| |
|
|
(Curfá...) |
(Chorus...) |
