Lyrics

Ó sí rún mo chléibh bhí ann (Aisling Song)
 
Lá dá rabhas sa choill úd thall,
Chonaic a spéirbhean claon-rosc mall,
Slat ‘na láimh ‘sí cumhra seang,
Ó sí rún mo chléibh bhí ann.
 
D’in-seoinn dreach mo leann-áin duit,
Dhá ghrua dhearg’ chomh dearg le fuil,
Béal gan locht ag aithris scéil,
Ó sí rún mo chléibh bhí ann.
 
Fol í ó hó ró, fol í ó,
Hú il ó hó ró, hú il ó,
Fol il é li hú il ó ró,
Ó sí rún mo chléibh bhí ann.
 
One day when I was in the wood,
I saw and gazed at a beautiful woman,
A rod in her hand, she was fragrant and slim,
Oh she was my dear love.
 
I would like to describe my love to you,
Two rouged cheeks as red as blood,
A perfect mouth that could never lie,
Oh she was my dear love.
 
Fol ee o ho ro fol ee oh,
Hoo eel oh ho re, hoo eel oh,
Fol ee eh lee hoo eel oh ro,
Oh she was my dear love.
