Lyrics: English Translation:
A chinn duibh dhílis dhílis dhílis My sweet, sweet, sweet dark-haired love
Cuir do lámh mhín gheal tharam a***l Put your pale, soft hand around me now
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá It is a heartless man that would not love you
Tá cailín' ar an mbaile seo'ar buile 's ar buaireamh The girls of this town are furious
Ag tarraingt a ngruaige 'sá ligean le gaoith Pulling their hair and letting it blow in the wind
Ar mo shonsa, an scafaire is fearr ins na tuatha For me, the best man in the countryside
Ach do thréigfinn an méid sin ar rún dil mo chroí But I would dump them all for my heart's love
Is cuir do cheann dílis dílis dílis Lay your sweet, sweet, sweet head
Cuir do cheann dílis tharam a***l Lay your sweet head on me
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá It is a heartless man that would not love you
A chinn duibh dhílis dhílis dhílis My sweet, sweet, sweet dark-haired love
Cuir do lámh mhín gheal tharam a***l Put your pale, soft hand around me now
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá It is a heartless man that would not love you
Tá cailín' ar an mbaile seo'ar buile 's ar buaireamh The girls of this town are furious
Ag tarraingt a ngruaige 'sá ligean le gaoith Pulling their hair and letting it blow in the wind
Ar mo shonsa, an scafaire is fearr ins na tuatha For me, the best man in the countryside
Ach do thréigfinn an méid sin ar rún dil mo chroí But I would dump them all for my heart's love
Is cuir do cheann dílis dílis dílis Lay your sweet, sweet, sweet head
Cuir do cheann dílis tharam a***l Lay your sweet head on me
A bhéinlín meala, 'bhfuil boladh na tíme air Mouth of honey that has the smell of thyme
Is duine gan chroí nach dtabharfadh duit grá It is a heartless man that would not love you
