Newry boat-song Lyrics

Chorus (after each verse):
Gur h-e mo ghille dubh-dhonn He is my dark brown lad
Gur t? mo chuilean runach You are my beloved darling
Gur h-e mo ghille dubh-dhonn He is my dark brown lad

San a'raoir nach d'fhuair mi'n cadal It was last night I couldn't sleep
Bha m? fad 'nam d?sgadh I was awake for a long time

Smaointin air an fhear a thr?ig mi Thinking of the man that forsook me
'S nach d'rinn feum dha chumhtan Who didn't keep his promise

He's gone, he's gone, my lover's gone
And left me broken hearted

Chuala mi gun d'rinn th? Dhomhnaill I heard, Donald
Posadh ann an Niubhraidh That you got married in Newry

Domhnall Donn the people say
You've married down in Newry

B'fhearr leam fhin a bheith riut posda I would prefer to be married to you
Na cuid ?r a Phrionnsa Than to have the Prince's gold

I would rather have you, Donall
Than the gold of princes

Och nam och mar tha mi nochd Alas how I am tonight
Trom osnaidh 's mi gad iondrainn Sighing heavily as I long for you
