Seanamhrán Gaeilge
“Brón ar an Bhéarla”
Sean amhran gaedhilge.
I
Brón ar an Bhéarla
Is truagh bocht mo gléas leis.
Ní rabh agamsa ariamh
Ach “Yes” agus “No”
II
Casadh damh ‘n Mhaighdean
A’s dubhairt sí “Be easy”
“I beg you don’t tease me
But let me alone”.
III
‘Sé thuig mé ‘s mo réasún
Gurb é chan sí sa bhéarla
“Druid thusa anall liom
Agus tabhair díom póg!”
IV
Dhruid mise anonn leithe
‘S níor spárail mé ‘h-éadan
Bhí cúig phunnta dhéag
Ins an cháin a rinn Eóin.
V
D’árduigh siad leobhtha
Go lathair a bhéil mé
“Hang him the rogue!”
A deireadh gach aon.(continues on next page)- Collector
