Tá¡ Mo Chleamhnas A Dhéanamh

Tá¡ mo chleamhnas á¡ dhéanamh inniu agus inné
'S ná­ mó ná¡ go dtaitná­onn an bhean udaá­ liom féin
Ach fuá­gfidh mé mo dhiaidh á­, is rachaidh mé leat féin
Sá­os fá¡na 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
Leabaá­ luachair a bheith faoi mo thaobh
Buideal brandaá­ a bheith faoi cheann
'S mo chailá­n deas óg 'bheith ar lá¡mh' 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

Shiáºil mise thoir agus shiáºil mise thiar
Shiáºil mise Corcaigh 'gus sraideanna Bhaile' Cliath
Macasamhail mo chailá­n ná­ fhaca mise riamh
'Sá­ 'n bhean á­ a d'fhá¡g mo chroá­ crá¡ite

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
