Celtic Thunder - Buachaill on Eirne Lyrics
Buachaill ón Éirne mé 's bhréagfainn cailÃn deas ógNà iarrfainn bó spré léi tá mé fhéin saibhir go leor'S liom Corcaigh da mhéid é, dhá thaobha' ghleanna 's TÃr Eoghain'S mura n-athraà mé béasaà 's mé n' t-oidhr'ar Chontae Mhaigh EoRachaidh mé 'márach ag dhéanamh leanna fán choillGan choite gan bád gan gráinnÃn brach' ar bith liomAch duilliúr na gcraobh mar éadaigh leapa os mo chionn'S óró sheacht m'anam déag thú 's tú 'féachaint orm anallBuachailleacht bó, mo leo, nár chleacht mise ariamhAch ag imirt 's ag ól le h'ógmhná deasa an tsliabhMá chaill mé mo stór nà moide gur chaill mé mo chiallA's nà mó liom do phóg ná'n bhróg atáim ag caitheamh le bliainTranslationI'm a boy from Lough Erne and I could charm a nice young girlI would not ask for her wealth as I am rich enough myselfI own a good part of Cork, two sides of the glen in TyroneAnd not to repeat myself I'm the heir of County MayoI will go tomorrow to make ale in the woodWithout a cot without a boat without a pinch of gruel with meBut leaves of the branches as bedclothes over my headAnd think well done for you as you watch me from over thereA cowherd, my pet, I've never been accustomed to beInstead of playing and drinking with the nice young womenon the mountain sideIf I lost my riches I probably didn't lose my sensesAnd your kiss is no more to me now than a shoe worn for a year
