Bill Galbraith Origins: Streets of Derry/Derry Gaol (26) RE: Streets of Derry 28 Jan 98

Thanks to all for help with Derry Gaol or Streets of Derry. I've worked out all but the last two verses of the Bothy Band/Triona Ni Dhomnhnaill version. The next-to-last verse ends with a line I absolutely cannot figure out. Something about a swift something wine (???). And the final verse in the next-to-last line seems to say as she saves him "And I let you miss me for we'll be united" which seems a strange thing to say. Any clues?
