I wish I was on yonder hill Tis there Id sit and cry my fill Till every tear would turn a mill Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan.
Siuil, siuil, siuil a ruin Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin Siuil go doras agus ealaigh liom Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
Ill sell my rock, Ill sell my reel Ill even sell my spinning wheel to buy my love a sword of steel Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
Siuil, siuil, siuil a ruin Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin Siuil go doras agus ealaigh liom Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red and it's round the World I will beg for bread until my parents would wish me dead. Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
Siuil, siuil, siuil a ruin Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin Siuil go doras agus ealaigh liom Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
I wish my love would return from France, his fame and fortune there advanced. If we meet again, 't will be by chance. Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
Siuil, siuil, siuil a ruin Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin Siuil go doras agus ealaigh liom Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan
