A'nion mhin o, sin anall na fir shuiri
A mhaithair mhin o! cuir na roithlean go dti me

Dulaman na Binne Bui, Dulaman Gaelach
Dulaman na farraige, "s e b"fhearr a bhi in Eirinn

Ta cosa dubha dubailte ar an dulaman gaelach
Ta dha chluais mhaol ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

Rachaimid go Doire leis an dulaman gaelach
Is ceannoimid broga daora ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

Broga breaca dubha ar an dulaman gaelach
Ta bearead agus trius ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

O chuir me sceala chuici, go gceannoinn cior di
'Se an sceal a chuir si chugam, go raibh a ceann ciortha

(Chorus)

O cha bhfaigheann tu mo 'nion, arsa an dulaman gaelach
Bheul, fuadoidh me liom I, arsa an dulaman maorach

(Chorus)

eirigh suas a stoirin mura bfhuil tu do shui
Foscail a' doras agus lig mise 'un ti
Ta buideal I'm aice bhearfas deoch
Do mhnaoi an ti
A's ta suil 'gam nach ndiultuigheann
Tu me fa do nion

Nuair a eirighim amach ar maidin
Agus dearcaim uaim siar
Is dearcaim ar a'bhaile ud a bhfuil
Agam le ghabhail ann
Tuiteann na deora na sroite liom sios
Agus gniomh se mile osna a
Ta cosuil le cumhaidh

I ngleanntain na coilleadh uagni


Is lag bronach a bim
o dhomnach go domhnach 's
Me ag cathamh mo shaol
'me feitheamh gach trathnona ce
Shiuluil 'na rod no ce thiocfadh 'n ti
's gan duine ar an domhan mhor a thiocfadh
's thogfadh mo chroi

A mhaili a cheadsearc na
Treig thusa me go brach
Nach bhfuil me do dhiadh gach aon la
Fa mhalaidh na n-ard
Is tu cruithneach ar mhna eireann
Is tu an pearla 'ta doiligh 'fhail
Is dar mhionna mo bheil ni breag e
Go bhfuil me leatsa I ngra

By chance it was I met my love
It did me much surprise
Down by a shady myrtle grove
Just as the sun did rise.
The birds they sang right gloriously
And pleasent was the air
And there was non save she and I
among the flowers fair.

In dewy grass and green we walked
She timid was and coy
How can'st thou choose but pity me
My pretty pearl, my joy
How comes it that thou stroll this way?
Sweet maiden tell me true
Before bright Phoebus' glittering ray
Has supped the morning dew?

I go to tend the flocks I love
The ewes and tender lambs
That pasture by the myrtle grove
That gambol by their dams
There I enjoy a pure content
At dawning of the day
Then, hand in hand, we lovers went
To see the flock at play.

And as we wended down the road
I said to her, "Sweet maid,
Three years I in my place abode
And three more must be stayed
The three that I am bound so fast
O fairest wait for me
And when the weary years are past
Then wedded we will be."

"Three years are long, three times too long
Too lengthy the delay"
And then I answered in my song
"Hope wastes them quick away
Where love is fervent, fain and fast
And knoweth not decay
There nimbly fleet the seasons past
Accounted as one day."

Curfa (chorus)

Teir abhaile riu
Teir abhaile riu
Teir abhaile riu mhary
Teir abhaile riu 's fan sa bhaile
Mar ta do mhargadh deanta.

Verse

Is cuma ce dhein e no nar dhein
Is cuma ce dhein e mhary
Is cuma ce dhein e no nar dhein mar
Ta do mhargadh deanta.


Curfa

Pos an piobaire
Pos an piobaire
Pos an piobaire mhary
Pos an piobaire dtus na hoiche
Is beidh se agat ar maidin.

Curfa

Nil do mmhargadh
Ta do mharghad
Nil mo mhardadh deanta
Ta do mhargadh
Nil do mhargadh
Ta do mhargadh deanta

I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill,
And every tear would turn a mill,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,
I'll sell my only spinning wheel,
To buy my love a sword of steel
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red,
And 'round the world I'll beg my bread,
Until my parents shall wish me dead,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
I wish I had my heart again,
And vainly think I'd not complain,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

But now my love has gone to France,
To try his fortune to advance;
If he e'er come back, 'tis but a chance,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Ag feis no dail nil bean le fail
Chomh sciamhach le mo Mhaire
Ta aice cneas bog ban a 's deas
Do chuirfeadh lil' faoi naire;
'san domhan seo, nil aon chroi chomh dil
No cailin ta nios fire -
'measc og no sean 'si plur na mban
Is ise brod na tire.

Ta gruaig mo stoir mar fhainni oir
A'titim sios go talamh;
Thar muineal ban a 's guaille lan
A cuma 'ta mar dhealbh.
Gi glan soilear gach realt 'san speir
Ta suil mo ghra nios glaine
's binne glor mo chailin oig
Na clairsi ciuin na cruinne.

'Measc aos og i leathar brog
Ar urlar, cuirt no pairliuin
Nior sheas le taobh aon fhear ariamh
Bean-rinceoir leath chomh halainn
Ma bhris si croi aon oganiagh
Gan breag do bhris si ceadta
'gus ta na mna fail bhais gach la
Le troim'is neart a n-eada.

Ag feis no dail nil bean le fail
Chomh sciamhach le mo Mhaire
Ta aice cneas bog ban a 's deas
Do chuirfeadh lil' faoi naire;
'san domhan seo, nil aon chroi chomh dil
No cailin ta nios fire -
'measc og no sean 'si plur na mban
Is ise brod na tire.

Ar chonnlaigh ghlais an Fhoghmhair
A stoirin gur dhearc me uaim
Ba deas do chos I mbroig
'Sba ro-dheas do leagan siubhail
Do ghruaidh ar dhath na rosai
'Sdo chuirnini bhi fighte dluith

Ta buachailli na h-aite seo
A' gartha 'gus ag eirghe teann

A' deanamh faruis do mo chailin donn
Da ngluaiseadh Ri na Spainne
Thar saile 's a shloighte cruinn
Bhruighfinn fear is fasach
'S bheinn ar laimh le mo chailin donn

Ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh'
Da mbinn agus mo chailin donn
Gluais is tar a chead-searc
No go dteidh muid thar Ghaoth-Bearra 'nonn
Go sgartar o n-a cheile
Barr na gcraobh 's an eala on tuinn
Ni sgarfar sin o cheile
'S nil ach baois dibh a chur 'n mur gcionn

Chuir me leitir scriobhtha
Annsoir mo sweetheart agus casaoid ghear
Chuir si chugam aris i
Go rabh a croidhe istuigh I lar mo chleibh
Cum na h-eala is mine
Na'n sioda 's na cluimh na n-ean
Nach trom an osna ghnim-se
Nuair a smaoitighim ar a bheith 'sgaradh lei

'Se chuala m/e De Domhnaigh
Mar chomhradh 'gabhail eadar mhnaibh
Go rabh si 'gabhail 'a posadh
Ar oigfhear da bhfuil san ait
A stoirin glac mo chomhairle
'S a' foghmhar seo fan mar ta
'S cha leigim le 'bhfuil beo thu
A stor no 's tu mo ghradh

Translation
(From Larry Keith Ogle)

On the green stubble-fields of Autumn
I saw you, my sweetheart
Nice were your feet in shoes
And wonderful your nimble gait
Your hair the color of roses
And your ringlets tightly plaited
Alas that we're not married
Or on board ship sailing away

The boys around here are
Laughing and getting bold
And the people of the high straw?
Are making?? of my brown girl
If the King of Spain would
Go abroad with his assembled men
I would flatten grass and rank grass
And I would be with my brown girl

Buying cows at the fair
If I were? and my brown girl
Go and come first love
Until we go over to Gaoth-Bearra
Until we separate from each other
The tops of the branches and the swan
From the waves?
That won't separate us
And it's only folly for you to put it??

I wrote a letter
To my sweetheart and a sharp complaint
She sent it back to me
That her heart was inside me
Compose the artsswannoble person?
Finer than silk or bird feathers
Heavy is my sigh
When I think of being apart from her

What I heard on Sunday
As conversation among the women
That she was going to be married
To a young man from the place
Sweetheart take my advice
And this Autumn stay as you are
And don't tell anyone, my love
That you are my love
