|
|
|
Orú Mháire Bhruinneal bláth na Finne
|
Oh Maire Bruinneal, flower of the Finn
|
|
'Ndaidh mé do lean aint anair anall
|
I followed you here and there
|
|
O ba bhinne liom do bhéal nó no cuacha seinm
|
Your mouth was sweeter to me than the cuckoo's singing
|
|
'S tú dfhág mise i ndeallaraí 'bháis
|
And it's you that has left me at death's door
|
|
|
|
|
A mhéid é mo thuirse níor lear domh a choinneal
|
I am so grieved I couldn't keep her
|
|
Deir siad gur mise a mheallas na mná
|
They said I was one who deceives women
|
|
|

Curfá

Chorus
:
|
|
Mharaigh tú go deo mé, lagaigh tú go mór mé
|
You have killed me forever, you have greatly weakened me
|
|
'Gus gach a bhfuil beo domh bhris tú mo chroí
|
And all that's alive to me, you broke my heart
|
|
|
|
|
Bhí a trí-point óir leí síos go triogh
|
Her golden trident with her down a foot
|
|
Agus í a gcarrnú ar gach taobh
|
And __ on each side
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Bí mé lá go ceolmar in sa ród
|
One day I was musically in the road
|
|
Tarlaigh domhsa 'n óig bhean chiúin
|
I met the quiet young woman
|
|
|
|
|
(Curfá)
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
|
Orú Mháire Bhruinneal bláth na Finne
|
Oh Maire Bruinneal, flower of the Finn
|
|
'Ndaidh mé do lean aint anair anall
|
I followed you here and there
|
|
O ba bhinne liom do bhéal nó no cuacha seinm
|
Your mouth was sweeter to me than the cuckoo's singing
|
|
'S tú dfhág mise i ndeallaraí 'bháis
|
And it's you that has left me at death's door
|
