Fhear A Bhata Songtext
von Kate Price

I wish I was on yonder hill
This there I′d sit and cry my fill,
And every tear would turn a mill
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

Shule, shule, shule aroon
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

I'll sell my rod, I′ll sell my reel
I'll sell my only spinning wheel
To buy my love a sword of steel
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

Shule, shule, shule aroon
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn


I'll dye my petticoats, I′ll dye them red
And ′round the world I'll beg my bread
Until my parents shall wish me dead
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
I wish I had my heart again,
And vainly think I′d not complain,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

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.

Shule, shule, shule aroon
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn
