Song Lyrics
i wrote a letter
Ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh, heavy is my sigh Clannad, that she was going to be married
N sgarfar sin ch ile, nice were your feet in shoes, sweetheart take my advice
A de namh f ruis do mo chail n donn, from the waves
The tops of the branches and the swan, and your ringlets tightly plaited An, go rabh s gabh il a p sadh
That you are my love, chuir s chugam ar s Fhómhair, go and come first love
Of my brown girl, she sent it back to me
N go dt idh muid thar ghaoth-bearra nonn, b rr na gcraobh s an eala n tuinn
from the waves
From larry keith ogle, finer than silk or bird feathers Fhómhair, ba deas do chos i mbr ig
cum na h-eala is m ne
A st r n s t mo ghr dh, do ghruaidh ar dhath na r sa
Ba deas do chos i mbr ig, and it s only folly for you to put it, what i heard on sunday
gluais is tar a ch ad-searc
I would flatten grass and rank grass, heavy is my sigh, that her heart was inside me
on the green stubble-fields of autumn
And my brown girl, s bh inn ar l imh le mo chail n donn
And i would be with my brown girl, from larry keith ogle, a st ir n gur dhearc m uaim
Annsoir mo sweetheart agus casaoid gh ar, that won t separate us
Go abroad with his assembled men, s chuala m e d domhnaigh Coinleach, the tops of the branches and the swan
and don t tell anyone
And this autumn stay as you are, ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh
That her heart was inside me, d ngluaiseadh r na sp inne
That you are my love, on the green stubble-fields of autumn Coinleach, go rabh s gabh il a p sadh
until we go over to gaoth-bearra
S bh inn ar l imh le mo chail n donn, if the king of spain would
and this autumn stay as you are
Bhr ighfinn f ar is f sach, thar s ile s a shl ighte cruinn Coinleach, i wrote a letter
that won t separate us
d mb nn agus mo chail n donn
a st r n s t mo ghr dh
From larry keith ogle, until we separate from each other, what i heard on sunday
s bh inn ar l imh le mo chail n donn
Chuir m leitir scr obhtha, laughing and getting bold, of my brown girl
and my brown girl
monuar gan sinn r bp sadh
Of my brown girl, until we separate from each other
T buachaill na h- ite seo, nach trom an osna ghn m-se An, or on board ship sailing away
N go dt idh muid thar ghaoth-bearra nonn, monuar gan sinn r bp sadh Glas, t buachaill na h- ite seo
B rr na gcraobh s an eala n tuinn, s a foghmhar seo fan mar t, go rabh s gabh il a p sadh
Gluais is tar a ch ad-searc, annsoir mo sweetheart agus casaoid gh ar
That she was going to be married, chuir s chugam ar s Clannad, go and come first love
Monuar gan sinn r bp sadh, that she was going to be married, s cha leigim le bhfuil beo th
a st ir n glac mo chomhairle
What i heard on sunday, finer than silk or bird feathers Clannad, a st ir n gur dhearc m uaim

B rr na gcraobh s an eala n tuinn, until we separate from each other
