| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| Aréir is mé téarnamh ar neoin | Last night as I strolled abroad |
| Ar ar dtaobh eile 'en teóra seo thiós | On the other side of this __ |
| Do thaobhnaigh an spéirbhean im' chomhair | A beautiful woman approached me |
| D'fhág taomanac breoite lag tinn | She left me weak and ill |
| Le haon ghean dá méin is dá cló | With one __ her disposition and her appearance |
| Dá bréithre 's dá beol tanaí binn | Her __ and her thin sweet mouth |
| Do léimeas fá dhéin dul 'na treo | ___ |
| Is ar Éirinn ní neosfainn cé hí | But for Ireland I'd not tell her name |
|
Last night in strange fields as I roved
Such a vision I passed on my way A young woman so fair to behold That in seconds my heart was astray Oh she reached out a welcoming hand But I knew that it never could be And before I could kiss her sweet lips She had vanished forever from me |
