Clannad - Siuil a Run - Текст песни

I wish I was on yonder hill

tis there Id sit and cry my fill,

And every tear would turn a mill,

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Chorus (in phonetic gaelic)

Shule, shule, shule aroon,

Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,

Shule go dheen durrus oggus aylig lume,

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Ill sell my rock, Ill sell my reel,

Ill sell my only spinning wheel,

To buy my love a sword of steel

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Chorus

Ill dye my petticoats, Ill dye them red,

And round the world Ill beg my bread,

Until my parents shall wish me dead,

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Chorus

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,

I wish I had my heart again,

And vainly think Id not complain,

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Chorus

But now my love has gone to france,

To try his fortune to advance;

If he eer come back, tis but a chance,

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Chorus
