| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
| Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
| Is trua gan peata'n mhaoir agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't the Steward's pet |
| Is na caoirigh beaga bána | And the little white sheep |
| Curfá : | Chorus (after each verse) : |
| Is ó gairm, gairm thú | And oh I call, I call you |
| Is grá mo chroí gan chealg thú | You are my heart's love without deceit |
| Is ó gairm, gairm thú | And oh I call, I call you |
| Is tú peata beag do mháthair | You are your mother's little pet |
| Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
| Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
| Is trua gan maoinín bhán agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little white calf |
| Is fáilte ó mo ghrá geal | And welcome from by fair love |
| Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
| Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
| Is trua gan bólacht bainne agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a milking herd |
| Is caitín ó mo mháthair | And a kitten from my mother |
| Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
| Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
| Is trua gan gabhairín bhuí agam | 'Tis a pity I haven't a little tan goat |
| Is thabharfainn do mo stór í | I would give it to my darling |
| (Curfá...) | (Chorus...) |
