English Translation

|
|
|
|
|
Is a Bhríd Óg Ní Mháille
|
Oh Bríd Óg O'Malley
|
|
'S tú d'fhág mo chroí cráite
|
You have left my heart breaking
|
|
'S chuir tú arraingeacha
|
You've sent the death pangs
|
|
An bháis fríd cheartlár mo chroí
|
Of sorrow to pierce my heart sore
|
|
Tá na céadta fear i ngrá
|
A hundred men are craving
|
|
Le d'éadan ciúin náireach
|
For your breathtaking beauty
|
|
Is go dtug tú barr breáchtacht'
|
You're the fairest of maidens
|
|
Ar Thír Oirghiall más fíor
|
In Oriel for sure
|
|
|
|
|
Níl ní ar bith is áille
|
No spectacle is fairer
|
|
Ná'n ghealach os cionn a' tsáile
|
Than moonbeams on the harbor
|
|
Ná bláth bán na n-airne
|
Or the sweet scented blossoms
|
|
Bíos ag fás ar an draighean
|
Of the sloe on the thorn
|
|
Ó siúd mar bíos mo ghrá-sa
|
But my love shines much brighter
|
|
Níos trilsí le breáchtacht
|
In looks and in stature
|
|
Béilín meala na háilleacht'
|
That honey-lipped beauty
|
|
Nach ndearna riamh claon
|
Who never said wrong
|
|
|
|
|
Is buachaill deas óg mé
|
I'm a handsome young fellow
|
|
'Tá triall chun mo phósta
|
Who is thinking of wedlock
|
|
'S ní buan i bhfad beo mé
|
But my life will be shortened
|
|
Mura bhfaighidh mé mo mhian
|
If I don't get my dear
|
|
A chuisle is a stóirín
|
My love and my darling
|
|
Déan réidh agus bí romhamsa
|
Prepare now to meet me
|
|
Cionn deireanach den Domhnach
|
On next Sunday evening
|
|
Ar Bhóithrín Dhroim Sliabh
|
On the road to Drum Slieve
|
|
|
|
|
Is tuirseach 's brónach
|
'Tis sadly and lonely
|
|
A chaithimse an Domhnach
|
I pass the time on Sunday
|
|
Mo hata 'mo dhorn liom
|
My head bowed in sorrow
|
|
'S mé ag osnaíl go trom
|
My sights heavy with woe
|
|
'S mé ag amharc ar na bóithre
|
As I gaze upon the byways
|
|
'Mbíonn mo ghrá-sa ag gabhail ann
|
That my true love walks over
|
|
'S í ag fear eile pósta
|
Now she's wed to another
|
|
Is gan í bheith liom
|
And left me forlorn
|
