|
|
|
A mh'ansacht na n-ansacht
|
My love and delight
|
|
A dtug mé m'ansacht go léir duit
|
To whom I gave all my love
|
|
Nach cuimhin leat mo mhealladh
|
Do you remember how you befuddled me
|
|
Is rinn tú'n fheall orm na dhéidh sin
|
And then betrayed me?
|
|
|
|
|
Anois atá mé folamh
|
Now I am empty
|
|
Is go bhfuil m'intinn lánbhuartha
|
And my thoughts troubled
|
|
'S mé ag amharc ar mo leannán
|
To see how my sweetheart
|
|
Ag fear eile á bréagadh
|
Is coaxed by another
|
|
|
|
|
Éireoidh mé ar maidin
|
I will rise in the morning
|
|
Le theacht dheirg na gréine
|
As the sun turns red
|
|
Agus fuígfidh mé mo bheannacht
|
And I will say my blessing and my farewell
|
|
Ag cailíní an tsaoil seo
|
To the girls of the world
|
|
|
|
|
Bhéarfaidh mé an ruaig sin
|
I will go away
|
|
Thart suas fá Loch Éirne
|
By Lake Erne
|
|
'S ní phillfidh mé 'na bhaile
|
And I will not return home until
|
|
Go gcanfaidh 'n chuach ann gach réigiún
|
The cuckoo's song doesn't echo in the sky
|
|
|
|
|
Mar bhláth bán na neoiníní
|
Like the white daisy petals
|
|
Bhíos a' fás i dtús a' tSamhraidh
|
That grow at the beginning of summer
|
|
Nó mar fhaolán dheas bhán
|
Or like the precious white gull
|
|
A bhíos a' snámh ar na méillte
|
That flies over the dunes
|
|
|
|
|
Mar ghrian os cionn na dtuillte
|
Like the sun over the high sea
|
|
'Sí dealrú thart timpeall
|
All resplendent
|
|
'S nach siúd mar bhíos mo ghrása
|
Such is my beloved
|
|
A' deanámh rámhaillí i m'intinn
|
Who has left me devastated
|
