I can make out some of it, but I need lots of help. Dolores Keane sings it on Sail Og Rua, and I've never heard anyone else do it, and I've no idea where to find it except in the Journal of the Irish Folk Song Society from the 1920s. The nearest set of those is over 1,000 miles from here. Boy, do I miss the Music Library at Indiana University! hogs & fishes, ciarili

Budh lághach í le bréagadh A's og dtug mo chroidhe grádh di le páirt de'n dithchéille 'S d'éaluigh sí leis an táilliúr uaim 'Sé ránaidhe fear Éireann Ní shiubhalfaidh mé níos mó ar Na bóithribh seo agaibhse Ach tógfaidh mé mo sheólta Amach faoi na sléibhtibh Ólfaidh mé mo dhóthain Dia Domhnaigh 'S ní béidh mé ar meirge Mar shúil go bhfághainn blas do phóigín 'S tú mo stóirín, a bhláth na finne! Tá mo ghrádh mar bhláth na náirne bhíos ag fás i dtús an tsamhraidh Nó mar na faoileáiní bána bhíos ag snámh ar na gleanntaibh. Nó mar bhéadh grian ós cionn Chárnáin Ins na sráide ag gabháil tímpeall A's mar siúd a bhíos mo ghrádh bán Ag déanamh rábhailte thrí m'intinn Éireofidh mé amárach Le fáinne an lae ghléghil A's déanfaidh mé mo dheaghrás Amach faoi na sléibhte. Fághfaidh mé mo bheannacht Ag mnáibh deas an tsaoghail seo A's dheanmhan a bhfillidh abhaile dhiom Go mbeidh an barr ag clainnaibih Éireann. |

By the way, I haven't got your address anymore, but I have a new and improved and yet bigger lyrics cd, with the titles not all bunched up! I'd love to send you another so you can toss the old one out. I'm using yahoo.com now, not excite, but the front half of my email's the same, and I think my old one's on the disk. Thank you so very, very much! I have about 7 people who've asked me for this one in the past, and they're going to love me now.... ciarili |
