|
Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
|
'S gun dhiult am bodach feur dhomh |
The old man refused me hay |
|
Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
|
Chuirinn fo mo shliosaid |
To put under my thigh |
|
Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |
|
'S gun dhiult am bodach feur dhomh |
The old man refused me hay |
|
Dhiult am bodach fodar dhomh |
The old man refused me straw |

Chuirinn fo mo shliosaid |
To put under my thigh |

Gun d' dhiult am bodach luideach odhar |
The ragged, sallow old man |

A's an t-sabhail feur dhomh |
Refused me hay in the barn |
| |

The old man refused me straw |
