    “Cailín na nár an domhain ¶ Gur tú mo grád gan dabht”

    Share Share Post
    Cailín na nár an domhain
    Gur tú mo ghrádh gan dabht
    Mar is cuidhce deas do cham agus do cnaibh sí
    And if I had a thousand pounds
    I would lay the money down
    In fhonn tú bheith agam-sa i bportlairge
    By this and that indeed
    And that bible that you read
    Ní sgairinn leat ar airgead ná ar ór buidhe
    Agus tógfainn-se duit long
    Agus go rachfaimís anonn thar fairrge
    Agus ní baoghal dúinn bheith baidhte
    Siobhán Ní Chinnéide
    Fuaireas an sgéal seo ó
    Muiris Ó Cinnéide 86 bl
    Cam Dubh
    Dá mbeinn-se féin im éinín
    Ag léimrigh ó chrann go crann
    Nú eascú fada caol dubh agus mo geilliú cois taobh na h-abhainn
    Do scriobhfainn-se cúpla bhéarsa
    Don spéir bhean le gradh dá cam
    Agus cómhradh ní fheadfainn a dheanamh
    Tá an meagraim ró mhór im cheann

    Cam-Dubh

    Amhrán
    Dá mbeinn-se féin im éinín
    Ag léimrigh o crann go crann
    Nú eascú fada caol dubh agus mo geilliú cois taobh na h-abhann
    Do sgriobhfainn-se cupla bhéarsa
    Don spéir bhean le grádh da cam
    Agus comhradh ní feadfainn a deanamh
    Tá an meagraim ró mhór im cheann
