Hello!
Does anyone know the correct pronunciations for AILILIU NA GAMHNA? I have been working on this song for a while and don't yet know how to pronounce the words. If you know Irish/Gaelic could you put down the way each word should sound? Thanks, below is the words I have.

AILILIU NA GAMHNA

Is inion d' aoire gan amhras
Do bhiodh ina conai cois taobh na Leamhna
Bhi bothan agam fein ann is fuinneog I gceann de,
Fad a bhiodh an bainne ag teamh agam
'sea ghlaofainn ar na gamhna

CURFA: Aililiu na gamhna, na gamhna bana,
Aililiu na gamhna, na gamhna b'iad a b'fhearr liom,
Aililiu na gamhna, na gamhna geala bana,
Na gamhna maidin shamhraidh
Ag damhsa ar na banta

Faightear dom cana is faightear dom bhuarach
Is faightear dom soitheach ina gcuirfead mo chuid uachtair.
Ceolta si na cruinne bheith a sioirchur I m'chluasa
Ba bhinne liomsa geimneach na mbo ag teacht chun buaile

CURFA

Rachaimid ar an aonach is ceannoimid gamhna
Is cuirfimid ar fear iad amach ins na gleannta,
Iosfaidh siad an fear is barr an aitinn ghallda
Is tiocfaidh siad abhaile chun an bhainne I gcoir an tSamhraidh.

CURFA



Well, that is that and boy, did the spell-checker dislike this one!
Silant'
Laurel
