Amhrán na Scadán - Éamonn Ghráinne Mac Ruairí

Amhrán iomráiteach ó Oileán Thoraí. Tá na focail ar fáil thíos. The famous fishing song from Tory Island, Co Donegal, Ireland. The lyrics are available below.

Nuair a théim a luí san oíche
Bím ag smaointiú ar an iasc
Nuair a éirim amach ar maidin
Bheirim ruid go dtí'n bhinn
Bíonn na héanacha ag cur pléisiúir orm
'Na suí I mbéal na bpoll
'San phéist ag an Tor Dhearg
Ag cur na scadáin thar na droim.

Nach deas an rud na slanntracha
Bheith ag soilsiu ar ar mbrolg
'S gurbh fhusa duinn a bpluchadh
Go minic na iad a dhiol
Ach caithfimid a dhul an caineal led
Mas maith no olc an t.am
An ait a mbeidh luchair ar an chearmai
romhainn
Is buideal dubh den lionn

Nuair a shuim chois na tineadh
Bim ag smaointiu ar an am
A raibh me fein iw mo churach beag
Amuigh ar bharr na dtonn
Gan idir me is an tsioraiocht
Ach an t-eadach tana tarr
Ag cosnu gaoithe is farraige
I measc eanacha na dtonn

You can find the lyrics in Lillis O Laoire's book I believe. In Irish it's called Ar Chreig i Lar na Farraige but it's available in English as well. Ta se seo ar na hamhrain is fearr liom fein comh maith. Chuala me e nuair a bhi me i dToraigh an cheaduair in 1982.
