In the song 'Limrick rake' they do sing "Agus fágaimíd siúd mar atá sé", what does this sentence mean? Thanks

Thank you so mush. It was a quick reply indeed.

The same line appears at the end of the song The Wife of the Bold Tenant Farmer and its meaning was also translated there as 'nuff said...

Pretty nippy there, Áine!

I think there is another song with that refrain, but I can't bring it to mind right this second.
