Buachaill On Eirne (Boy from Ireland) (English)
4
I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,
5
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,
6
I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,
7
And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.
8
Cow herding, my Leo, I did not never practice,
9
But playing and drinking with new young women by the mountain.
10
If I lost my wealth and I don't think I lost my sense,
11
And your kiss is no more to me than a show worn for a year.
12
My love and treasure, don't marry the old grey man,
13
But marry a young man, my Leo, even though he lives but a year,
14
Or you'll still be without a daughter or son above you,
15
Crying in the afternoon or in the morning hard.
