| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár | There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare |
| Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár | There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare |
| Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár | There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare |
| Cén mhaith dom é? Ní bheidh mé ann | But what's the use? I won't be there |
| Curfá : | Chorus : |
| 'S a mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé | Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair? |
| A mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé | Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair? |
| A mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé | Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair? |
| A mhuinín ó, ná héiligh é | My fondest child, oh please don't ask |
| Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós | You're not even ten or eleven years old |
| Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós | You're not even ten or eleven years old |
| Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós | You're not even ten or eleven years old |
| Nuair a bheadh tú trí deag, beidh tú mór | When you're thirteen I'll let you go |
| (Curfá) | (Chorus) |
| B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg | The cobbler is the man I like the best |
| B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg | The cobbler is the man I like the best |
| B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg | The cobbler is the man I like the best |
| Ná oifigieach airm faoi lásaí óir | I prefer him to an officer with golden braid |
| (Curfá 2x) | (Chorus 2x) |
