\nAg d\u00edol is ag ceannacht mar a bh\u00ed mo sheacht s\u00ednsear romham
\nBhuail bean bleid orm is chuaigh muid in \u00e9ind\u00ed ag \u00f3l
\nIs ar ch\u00faram na hanachain, d’\u00f3l mise luach na mbr\u00f3g.<\/p>\n
\nGan teach gan talamh gan \u00e1it ar bith a dtabharf\u00e1 \u00ed isteach
\nDo shios\u00far is do mhios\u00far ag imeacht faoin t\u00edr amach –
\nIs a Dhia ‘s a Mhac Dara n\u00e1r thuga t\u00fa an c\u00e9ile leat!<\/p>\n
\nA’s t\u00e1 bean eile a’m is caithfidh s\u00ed p\u00edopa\u00edn a fh\u00e1il
\nT\u00e1 bean eile a’m is caithfidh s\u00ed gach n\u00ed a fh\u00e1il
\nAch mo dhiom\u00fa ar chailleachai, is deacair iad a \u00fatam\u00e1il!<\/p>\nTranslation<\/h2>\n
\nBuying and selling as my forefathers have done before me
\nI met a talkative woman and we went off together for a drink
\nAnd damned if I didn’t drink the price of the shoes!<\/p>\n
\nAsking a woman to marry you without a house
\nWithout land, without anyplace you could take her into
\nYour scissors and measuring-tape all over the countryside
\nAnd by God and Mac Dara may you not get the wife!<\/p>\n
\nI’ve another woman, and she has to have a pipe
\nI’ve another woman, and she must have everything
\nBut bad cess to the old women, they’re hard to handle!<\/p>\nNotes<\/h2>\n
\nThe air is the same one generally associated in Conamara with An tAmhr\u00e1n Br\u00e9agach, and M\u00e1irt\u00edn \u00d3 Cadhain expressed the view, in an article in An Stoc, that the first verse in this version may be associated with that song; see u\u00ed \u00d3g\u00e1in, op. cit., bottom of p. 108.<\/p>\n
