Текст песни Meav Ni Mhaolchatha - Dark-haired girl

(Chorus:)
Dheannain sugradh ris a nighean duibh (I played with the young dark-haired girl)
N' deidh dhomh eirigh as a 'mhadainn (When I woke in the morning)
Dheannain sugradh ris a nighean duibh (I played with the young dark-haired girl)

Dheannain sugradh ris a'ghruagaich (I played with the long-haired girl)
'Nuair a bhiodh a' sluagh nan codal (When everyone was asleep)

(Chorus)

Dheannain sugradh an am dusgaidh (I played when we woke)
'N am na siuil a bhith 'gam pasgadh (And when the sails were unfurled)

(Chorus)

Di-Luain an deidh Di-domhnaich (On Monday, after Sunday)
Dh'fhalbh sinn le Seonaid a Aircaibh (We left the Orkneys on the Seonaid)

(Chorus)

Riof 'ga ceangal 's riof ga fhuasgladh (Reefs taken in and reefs shaken)
Muir ma guallain, fuaim is fead oirr' (Waves under her bow, and her booming and whistling)

(Chorus)

Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun
Nach i seo aniar an bad (Is that not the boat coming from the west?
Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun
'S mo ghra ar an mbuille lair (And my love at the mid-oar? )
Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun

Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun)
Is iarram ar Ri na ngrast (And I ask the King of grace)
Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun)
Mo ghra a thabhairt chugam slan (To bring my love safely to me)
Is Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun (Dun Drumuilliun, muilliun, muilliun)

'Null ma chaolas na Roimh (Across the straits of Rome)
B'fheudar dhuinn an "boom" a leaiseadh (We had to keep a tight grip on the boom)

(Chorus)

Null ma chaolas na Fraing (Across the narrow waters of France)
Maide 'na laimh is gaoth 'gha greasadh (She was under control and the wind driving us)

(Chorus)

Dh'fheumadh porsan thigh 'nn a buth dhith (She wouldn't want a gift from a market)
Ged a bhiodh e crun an cairteal (If a crown was her share)

(Chorus)

Ged a bhiodh e crun an oirleach (Even if it were a crown of gold)
Dh'fheumadh porsan dheith thigh 'nn dhachaidh (She wouldn't want a gift brought home to her)

(Chorus...)
