Lyrics
Is é mo choí gan mise maidin aerach
I regret that on this airy morning
Amuigh i m
Béarra im' sheasamh ar an dtrá
I am not out in Béarra sitting on the beach
Is guth na n-éan 'o'm tharraing tha na sléibhte cois na farraige
With the voices of birds drawing me over the mountains beside the sea
Go Céim an Aitinn mar ambíonn mo ghrá
To the Pass of the Furze where my love is
Is obann aoibhinn aiteasach do léimfhinn
I would caper about happily, pleasantly
Do rithfhinn saor ó anabhroid an tláis
I would run free from doubts and fears
Do thabharfainn droim le scamallaibh an tsaoil seo
I turn my back on the clouds of this life
Dá bhfaighinn mo léirdhothain d'amharc ar mo chaoimshearc bán
If I could ever get my fill of looking at my fair
Sweetheart Is é mo dhíth bheith ceangailte go faonlag
It is my sadness to be bound here in weakness
Is neart mo chléibh dá thachtadh 'nseo sa tsráid
The power of my spirit suffocated here in the streets
An fhad tá réim na habhann agus gaoth ghlan na farraige
While the rivers flow and the pure sea wind
Ag glaoch is gairm ar an gcroí seo i m'lár
Calls and summons the heart within me
Is milis bríomhar leathanbhog an t-aer ann
The air there is sweet and vigorous and soft
Is gile ón ngréin go farsing ar an mbán
And bright is the sun that shines on the grasslands
Is ochón, a ríbhean bhanúil na gcraobhfholt
But alas, oh gentle queen of the curly hair
Gan sinne araon i measc an aitinn mar do bhímis tráth
