Ta Mo Chleamhnas A Dheanamh

Tá mo chleamhnas 'a dhéanamh inniu agus inné

'S ní mó ná go dtaitníonn an bhean udaí liom féin

Ach fuígfidh mé mo dhiaidh í, 's rachaidh mé leat féin

Síos fána coille craobhaigh

A match was a-making here last night

And it isn't with the girl that I love the best

I'll leave her behind and I'll go along with you

Down by the banks of the ocean

'Mo codladh go h-eadarshuth b'aite liom féin

Leabaí luachair a bheith faoi mo thaobh

Buideal brandaí a bheith faoi mo cheann

'S mo chailín deas óg 'bheith ar lámh' liom

Sleeping to milking time is my delight

A bed of green rushes underneath my side

A bottle of brandy underneath my head

And a charming young maid in my arms

Shiúil mise thoir agus shiúil mise thiar

Shiúil mise Corcaigh 'gus sráideanna Bhaile' Cliath

Macasamhail mo chailín ní fhaca mise riamh

'Sí 'n bhean í a d'fhág mo chroí cráite

Oh I walked east and I walked west

I walked Cork and Dublin's streets

An equal to my love I didn't meet

She's the wee lass that's left my heart broken
