  1. Unpublished Irish Songs - Fágamís Siúd mar atá Sé

    Share Share Post
    Agús cois na h-abhann ag tais-deal a bhíos
    In silence I rambled in raptures of glee
    Do dhearcas an ainnis cúl-bhaire ball groidhe
    Agus fagaimís siúd mar atá sé
    Do dhruideas n-a h-aice te taithneamh dá réim
    And I kindly accosted the damsel of fame
    Mo hata go talamh do leigeas lem thaobh
    Agus fáfáimís siúd mar atá sé
    Her voice was melodious her accent most sweet
    Ba bhinne ná caol-chriut a béal mílis binn
    Saying once more will assemble those [?] must yield
    Agus fágaimís siúd mar atá sé
    Now I come over to my own Nature Isle
