  1. Seanamhrán - Neillí Bán

    “Nellie Bán suidh síos láimh liom ¶ Ar feasta anios ar serian”

    Share Share Post
    Nellie Bán suidh síos láimh liom
    Ar feasta anios ar scrian
    Leig mo lámh ar do bhrághaid
    No ní mairfinn mé féin bliain
    Snámhfainn féin an tSiúir
    Agus an t Sionna gheal id' dhiaidh
    D'fonn bheith i gcleamnas leat
    Lá fada anois is bliain
    II
    B'mhaith liomsa Portwilliamton
    Agus Liosabunnytown
    Corcaig agus Lonndan
    Agus Condae b'laith Claith
    Ar do mhuinntir féin do bronnfainn iad.
    A leath agus a thrian
    Mar thugtar a barr deas
    Ó mná deasa Baile Locha Rinn.

    Bur mo litir síos go Connact
    Do go bhfada bhí sí uaim
    Mo bheannacht ar mo Valentine
    Mar do craidh sí mé ró mór
    An teine coinne do bhí eadrainn
    le cuir ar leasa mhóir
