Mary Black - Siúil A Rúin

 

I would I were on yonder hill
It's there I'd sit and cry my fill
And every tear would turn the mill Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán
   (And may you go safely, my darling)

Siúl siúl siúl a rún
   (Go, go, go, my love)
Siúl go socair 'is siúl go ciúin
   (Go quietly and go peacefully)
Siúl go doras agus éalaigh liom
   (Go to the door and fly with me)
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán
   (And may you go safely, my darling)

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel
I'll sell my only spinning wheel
For to buy my love a coat of steel
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red
And 'round the world I'll beg for bread
Until my parents would wish me dead
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

And now my love has gone to France
To try his fortune to advance
If he ne'er came back, there'll be but a chance
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán
