    “Ar maidin lá sa t-samhradh”

    Share Share Post
    Abhrán a dinnis mó mháthair mhór domh
    (1)
    Ar maidín lá sa t-samhradh
    I nGleann is mé ag seoladh bó
    Casadh orm an óig bhean
    Agus í gleasta ins an éadeadh chóir
    (2)
    Bhí hata os cionn a clóca
    Agus buclaí buidhe de phrás a bfhearr
    Bhí ribíní in a bróga
    ‘Sí mó stór í go bhfuighidh mé bás
    (3)
    Malacht dúinn a Shinéad
    Cé dhibear mó ghrádh i bhfad uaim
    Is na leigidh ar mo dhiobhaidh
    Lá saoire no go moch Dia Luain
    (4)
    Is dá mbéadh sé cur lá saoire
    Is an oidhche bheith cur sneachta ó thuaidh
    O a Shinéad bháin cead síonadh leat
    As béidh mé comh díomhaoin leis an ola cluaidhe
