Beidh Aonach Amárach - There's A Fair Tomorrow

Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare
Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare
Beidh aonach amárach i gContae an Chldár There's a fair tomorrow in the County Clare
Cén mhaith dom é? Ní bheidh mé ann But what's the use? I won't be there
   
Chorus:
'S a mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair
A mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair
A mháithrín, on ligfidh tú 'un aonaigh mé Oh mother, won't you let me to the fair
A mhuinín ó, ná héiligh é My fondest child, oh please don't ask
   
Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós You're not even ten or eleven years old
Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós You're not even ten or eleven years old
Níl tú a deich ná a haon déag fós You're not even ten or eleven years old
Nuair a bheadh tú trí deag, beidh tú mór When you're thirteen I'll let you go
   
(Chorus)
   
B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg The cobbler is the man I like the best
B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg The cobbler is the man I like the best
B'fhearr liom féin mo ghréasaí bróg The cobbler is the man I like the best
Ná oifigieach airm faoi lásaí óir I prefer him to an officer with golden braid
