Clannad - Coinleach Glas An Fhomhair Lyrics
Ar chonnlaigh ghlais an FhoghmhairA stóirín gur dhearc mé uaimBa deas do chos i mbróig'Sba ró-dheas do leagan siubhail.Do ghruaidh ar dhath na rósaí'Sdo chúirníní bhí fighte dlúithMonuar gan sinn 'ár bpósadhNó'r bórd luinge 'triall 'un siubhail.Tá buachaillí na h-áite seoA' gartha 'gus ag éirghe teannIs lucht na gcochán árdA' deánamh fáruis do mo chailín donnDá ngluaiseadh Rí na SpáinneThar sáile 's a shlóighte cruinnBhrúighfinn féar is fásach'S bhéinn ar láimh le mo chailín donn.Ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh'Dá mbínn agus mo chailín donnGluais is tar a chéad-searcNó go dtéidh muid thar Ghaoth-Bearra 'nonnGo sgartar ó n-a chéileBárr na gcraobh 's an eala ón tuinnNí sgarfar sin ó chéile'S níl ach baois díbh á chur 'n mur gcionn.English to the Above:On the green stubble-fields of AutumnI saw you, my sweetheart.Nice were your feet in shoesAnd wonderful your nimble gait.Your two cheeks the color of rosesAnd your ringlets tightly plaitedAlas that we're not marriedOr on board ship sailing awayThe boys around here areLaughing and getting boldAnd the people of the high straw?Are making ?? of my brown girlIf the King of Spain wouldGo abroad with his assembled menI would flatten grass and rank grassAnd I would be with my brown girlBuying cows at the fairIf I were ? and my brown girlGo and come first loveUntil we go over to Gaoth-BearraUntil we separate from each otherThe tops of the branches and the swan from the waves ?That won't separate usAnd it's only folly for you to put it ??I wrote a letterTo my sweetheart and a sharp complaintShe sent it back to meThat her heart was inside me.Like the sweetest swan?Finer than silk or bird feathersHeavy is my sighWhen I think of being apart from her.What I heard on SundayAs conversation among the womenThat she was going to be marriedTo a young man from the place.Sweetheart take my adviceAnd this Autumn stay as you areAnd don't tell anyone, my love,That you are my love.
