Corrs, The - Buachhaill On Eirne Lyrics






Buachaill ón Éirne mé is bhréagfainn féin cailín deas óg.
Ní iarrfainn bó spré léi, tá mé féin saibhir go leor
Is liom Corcaigh dá mhéid é, dhá thaobh an ghleanna, is Tír Eoghain,
Is mura n-athra' mé béasaí, is mé an t-oidhre ar chontae Mhuigheo.

Buachailleacht bó, mo leo, nár chleacht mise riamh
ach ag imirt is ag ól le hógmhná deasa fá shliabh.
Má chaill mé mo stór ní móide gur chaill mé mo chiall
Is ní mó liom do phóg ná an bhróg atá ar caitheamh le bliain.

Rachaidh mé amárach a dhéanamh leanna fán choill,
gan coite gan bád gan gráinín brach' ar bith liom,
ach duilliúir na gcraobh mar éide leaba os mo cheann
is óró, a sheacht m'anam déag thú, is tú ag féachaint orm anall.

[Translation:]

I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,
I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,
And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.

Cow herding, my Leo, I did not never practice,
But playing and drinking with new young women by the mountain.
If I lost my wealth and I don't think I lost my sense,
And your kiss is no more to me than a show worn for a year.

My love and treasure, don't marry the old grey man,
But marry a young man, my Leo, even though he lives but a year,
Or you'll still be without a daughter or son above you,
Crying in the afternoon or in the morning hard.

    What's this language? thanks for the answer, if someone read this

    M.... ....

    Thinking it's irish (galic original). Could someone explain the meaning of the wonderful song "toss the feathers" for a german fan of the Corrs and of course of Ireland ?

    M.... ....

    Yes it is sung in Irish.

    “Toss The Feathers”, is just a random name to give a reference name for a tune which has no words and was created for dancing to.
    Many of these instrumental Irish dancing tunes have silly or whimsical names, I guess keeping with the fun spirit of the music itself.

  13. B.... ....

    It is the song that drunks are attracted to.

  14. b.... N....

    Home is my second most favourited The Corrs album. However, I don't remember the songs because I can't sing them. Still, it's a beautiful album, and this song is lovely, too

  38. N.... N....

    I apparently once spoke to Andrea on the phone after meeting her family in my home town.

    I still don't know to this day if it was really her or not.

    E anch'io che sono italiano ho la stessa sensazione con questa stupenda lingua. Chissà perché??

    p.... r....

    je ne sais pas , en tout cas c'est pareil pour moi ,je vais en irlande le plus souvent possible (en fonction de mes moyens ),j'ai bien essayé d'apprendre le 'celte' mais même via internet c'est très dur .

    Love listening to Andrea sing in Gaelic. Thanks for the translation.

  68. U.... M....

    brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  69. D.... L....

    What a great song! p.s. A person who is capable of walking away from someone just because of lost riches is nothing but a tornado to run away from....xoxo

  70. H.... ....

    Only in Irish could the phrase "your kiss is no more to me than a shoe worn for a year" sound so beautiful.

    H.... ....

    That line popped right out of the blue!

    H.... ....

    Geoff. your contributions and painstaking research have not gone unnoticed. ty

    H.... ....

    TheBlueskyson. No, a french too, trust me my friend. We are able to go all over the world, only for one kiss 💋 the woman we love.

    I hear a bit of VM's Celtic ray in there....

  76. J.... P....

    So is Damian McGinty doing it right?

  77. I.... S....

    It starts so well and ended so sad!
    Une histoire qui commence si bien et qui finit si mal c'est triste non?

  78. a.... s....

    love you #3

  79. b.... ....

    Miley Cyrus is a better and more talented singer. That is why she is famous and successful.

    b.... ....

    @bopp9 Muhahahahaaaaaa.......... I love sarkasm!! Great!!!!!!!

    b.... ....

    +bopp9
    I think my sarcasm meter is broken. I got nothing.

    b.... ....

    And that's why Andrea should have followed the good example of Miley and incorporated much more twerking in their concerts. That's how The Corrs would have achieved world wide recognition for their art! XD

    b.... ....

    bopp9 yes good at wrecking your balls ahahaha corrs forever nothing but the best..

  80. �.... �....

    fantastic irish tune!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!

  81. I.... S....

  82. D.... H....

    ,,,miaj preferataj,,,,)  BIG LIKE,,TNX

  83. A.... P....

    This is my third favorite song in the world and my favorite that isn't a hymn. It took me twenty minutes to figure out the notes on the guitar, and it will take me the rest of my life to learn how to play it as beautifully as it deserves to be played.

    A.... P....

    having a crack is the main thing Al. go for it.

    A.... P....

    I've mastered it in the tin whistle and so proud of it.

  84. P.... B....

    Ireland in my heart !!

  85. R.... C....

    I am 6th generation Irish from Derry in  Canada. 1823. It is nice to see the written word and as sung by such a beautiful women. thank you for posting this song

  86. L.... H....

    Very good

  87. M.... V....

    Love this song, thanks for the lyrics

  88. T.... K....

    Great version, Andrea. Glad you got rid of the heavy breathing. Come by my Hills, anytime.

  89. B.... F....

    Que bonita canción y letra: trabajo, mar, monte y amor ¿Que más se puede pedir?

  90. B.... F....

    Beautiful rendition of a great song. I never would have guessed what the words meant without the translation to English, Thank you so much for this post.

  91. m.... ....

    my favorite gaelic song.

    m.... ....

    marc35wallace u

  92. s.... ....

    Nice, but doesn't compare to the same song done by Clannad...

    s.... ....

    Maire's is the pure gold standard, but this is a pretty good twenty carat version. Aine Minogue also sings a nice version.

  93. l.... ....

    Further to my previous  comment this does seem a rather extreme reaction to your singing

  94. l.... ....

    To Liam Antrim. Hope you were insured. I don't know what your comments have to do with the song

  95. m.... ....

    just a beautiful music!

  96. M.... T....
