Tá’s a’m nach ’bpósfa’, tá’s a’m nach ’bpósfa’ Mar tá sé ró-óg ’gus d’ólfadh sé’n t-airgead ’ (Chorus twice) ’S gairid go ’bpósfaidh, ’s gairid go ’bpósfaidh ’S gairid go ’bpósfaidh, beirt ar an mbaile seo ’S gairid go ’bpósfaidh, ’s gairid go ’bpósfaidh Séan Shéamais Mhóir agus Máire Ní Chathasaigh (Chorus three times) She is your granny, she is your granny And she would put coaches on the roads of Cois Farraige She is your granny, from the town of Nishmore She’s your granny, the hag with the money If you’d see the steam going past Toin Ui Loin’ But she’d never keep pace with the hag with the money She’d scatter the stoor nine times to the rear And the wheels turning speedily out from her flanks Do you reckon he’d marry, do you reckon he’d marry Cause he is too young and he’ll squander the money I know he’ll not marry, I know he’ll not marry Do you reckon he’d marry the hag with the money? We’ll soon have a wedding, we’ll soon have a wedding Between Sean Seamais Mhoir and Maire Ni Chathasaigh We’ll soon have a wedding, we’ll soon have a wedding We’ll soon have a wedding, by two in the village |
