Translation
14
I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,
15
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,
16
I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,
17
And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.
18
Cow herding, my Leo, I did not never practice,
19
But playing and drinking with new young women by the mountain.
20
If I lost my wealth and I don't think I lost my sense,
21
And your kiss is no more to me than a show worn for a year.
22
My love and treasure, don't marry the old grey man,
23
But marry a young man, my Leo, even though he lives but a year,
24
Or you'll still be without a daughter or son above you,
25
Crying in the afternoon or in the morning hard.
