Is trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
Is trua ghéar nach mise Bean Pháidín-
Is trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige a bheith caillte.

Rachainn go Gaillimh, go Gaillimh
'S rachainn go Gaillimh le Páidín
Rachainn go Gaillimh, go Gaillimh
'S thiocfainn abhaile sa mbád leis.

Is trua ghéar nach mise

Rachainn go haonach an Chlocháin
'S isteach go Béal Átha na Báighe,
Bhreathnóinn isteach trína fuinneogaí
'Shúil 's go bhfeicfinn Bean Pháidín.

Is trua ghéar nach mise..

Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
Go mbristear do chosa, a Bhean Pháidín
Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa
Go mbristear do chosa 's do chnámha!

Is trua ghéar nach mise..

Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga
Chaith mé mo bhróga i ndiaidh Pháidín,
Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga
Chaith mé na boinn is na sála.

Is trua ghéar nach mise..

@bodrhanbert A version of this song was recorded on Planxty's "Well Below the Valley" record from the 1970's with a translation printed on the liner notes. The song is followed by a pipe solo tune not named on the album, "Rakish Paddy."

Beautiful photos-but do I really want to look for a stalker homicidal wife?
