Locations
Nuair a fheicfeas mé mo ghrá ag tíocht aniar,
When I see my love coming from the west,.
Mar nach fhéad mé a theacht ar láthair.
Because I could not come to the place..
Leis an méid fhad bhí eadrainn ariamh.
With all that was ever between us..
Nuair a smaoiním ar an sú grús ar an gáirí,
When I think of the cranberry juice I laugh.
Óra, briseadh mo chroí bocht le dó lá.
Oh, my poor heart broke for two days..
Agus goil mé go mór ina diaidh.
And I miss him/her very much..
Muise a bhí mise lá is mé go súgach.
Well, there was I one day and I in high spirits...
Is mé ag triall ar tigh Mhicil sa nGleann,
I am going to Micil’s house in the Glen.
Bhí Stampán de Tincéaraí.
There was a Stampán of Tinkers..
Ach maith thú féin a Phádraig iontach ansin.
But good for you, wonderful Patrick there..
Bhuel, anois tá ár n-aghaidh níos faide siar i gContae Mhaigh Eo.
Well, now our face is further back in County Mayo.
I dtreo cheantar Iorras Donnáin
Towards the area of Erris Donnán.
Ach cá háit go díreach a bhfuil?
But where exactly is it?
