My apologies. I just checked my last send re lyrics and history of this song and found the lyrics a bit muddled so I've separated and resent. Hope this is clearer

ORO, SE DO BHEATHA ABHAILE

Se do bheatha, a bhean ba leanmhar
B'e ar gcreach tu bheith i ngeibhinn
Do dhuiche bhrea i seilbh meirleach
'S tu diolta leis na ghallaibh

CURFA: Oro, se do bheatha abhaile
Oro, se do bheatha abhaile
Oro, se do bheatha abhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

Ta grannie mhoal ag teacht thar saile
Oglaigh armtha lei mar gharda
Gaeil iad fein is ni gaill na spainnigh
Is cuirfidh ruaig ar ghallaibh. CURFA

A bhui le ri na bhfeart go bhfeiceam
Muna mbeam beo ina dhiaidh ach seachtain
Grannie mhoal agus mile gaiscioch
Ag fogairt fain ar ghallaibh. CURFA

OH WELCOME HOME

Welcome lady of great sorrow
We share the grief of your internment
Your fair land in the hands of brigands
And you in bondage to strangers

CHORUS: Oh, welcome home
Oh, welcome home
Oh, welcome home
Now the summer is coming.

Grannie Mhoal (Grace O'Malley) is crossing the ocean
With armed warriors as her guard
Gaels are they not French nor Spaniards
They will overwhelm to the foreigners. CHORUS

Thank heaven's king that we shall see
Even though we die soon after (the next week)
Grannie Mhoal and a thousand warriors
Herald the stranger's retreat. CHORUS
