Chorus
:
|
|
'Sé an truaigh nach mise, nach mise
|
It's a pity that I am not, that I am not
|
|
'Sé an truaigh nach mise bean Pháidín
|
It's a pity that I am not Páidín's wife
|
|
'Sé an truaigh nach mise, nach mise
|
It's a pity that I am not, that I am not
|
|
'S an bhean atá aige a bheith caillte
|
And the woman he has is dead
|
|
|
|
|
Rachainn go Gaillimh, go Gaillimh
|
I would go to Galway, to Galway
|
|
'Gus rachainn go Gaillimh le Páidín
|
I would go to Galway with Páidín
|
|
Rachainn go Gaillimh, go Gaillimh
|
I would go to Galway, to Galway
|
|
'S thiocfainn abhaile sa mbád leis
|
And I would return home with him in the boat
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Rachainn go hAonach na Chlocháin
|
I would go to the Clifden market
|
|
'S isteach go Béal Átha na Báighe
|
And into Béal Áth in the Bay
|
|
Bhreathnóinn isteach trí na fuinneogaí
|
I would look in through the windows
|
|
'Súil 's go bhfeicfinn bean Pháidín
|
Hoping to see Páidín's wife
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá 2x)
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
|
|
|
|
Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
|
May you break your legs, your legs
|
|
Go mbristear do chosa, a bhean Pháidín
|
May you break your legs, Páidín's wife
|
|
Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
|
May you break your legs, your legs
|
|
Go mbristear do chosa 's do chnámha
|
May you break your legs and your bones
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga
|
I wore out my shoes, my shoes
|
|
Chaith mé mo bhróga i ndiaidh Pháidín
|
I wore out my shoes chasing Páidín
|
|
Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga
|
I wore out my shoes, my shoes
|
|
Chaith mé na boinn is na sála
|
I wore out the soles and the heels
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá 2x)
|
(Chorus 2x)
|
