- Clannad - Buachaill Ón Éirne (Boy from the Erne)
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 dóigh gur chaill mé mo chiall
Is ní mó liom do phóg ná an bhróg atá ar caitheamh le bliain.
A chuisle 's a stór
Ná pós an seanduine liath
Ach pós an fear óg, mo Leo
Mura mairfidh sé ach bliain
Nó beidh tú go fóill
Gan ó nó mac os da chionn
A shilleadh an deor tráthnóna
Nó ar maidin go trom
Translation:
I am a boy from the Erne 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 the 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
For me this one of Clannad's best songs. I don't speak a word of Gaelic, but this tune is truly beautiful.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Clannad are amazing. I came back today because I have been feeling melancholy and this song is soothing, even though it has a sad tone to me. It helped me to have a good cry.
This is the best version of the song Buachaill ón Éirne.
Moreover, Máire's voice is wonderful.
I've never been to Ireland and I don't know anything about where this is, but I'll bet it's a beautiful place. No other people is as good as the Irish when it comes to a good heart-rending song and Clannad is the best of the best.
As I sit here in the Blue Ridge I can close my eyes and it almost seems like I am transported 3000 miles to there.
Também penso assim !!!!! . 😊😊😊😊😊
By far, my favorite rendition of the folk song.
I grew up listening to Clannad and they are one of the few groups which make me proud to come from the land of Ireland. Great musicianship and and the sublime voice of Maire Brennan. We are just passing through and music like this anchors us to our past ancestry. Sometimes it is good to take a break and reflect on life.
Buachaill ón Éirne mé 's bhréagfainn féin cailín deas óg
Ní iarrfainn bó spré léithe tá mé féin saibhir go leor
'S liom Corcaigh 'a mhéid é, dhá thaobh a' ghleanna 's Tír Eoghain
'S mura n-athraí mé béasaí 's mé n' t-oidhr' ar Chontae Mhaigh Eo
Rachaidh mé 'márach a dhéanamh leanna fán choill
Gan choite gan bád gan gráinnín brach' ar bith liom
Ach duilliúr na gcraobh mar éideadh leapa os mo chionn
'S óró sheacht mh'anam déag thú 's tú 'féachaint orm anall
Buachailleacht bó, mo leo, nár chleacht mise ariamh
Ach ag imirt 's ag 'ol 's le hógmhná deasa fá shliabh
Má chaill mé mo stór ní dóigh* gur chaill mé mo chiall
A's ní mó liom do phóg ná'n bhróg atá'r caitheamh le bliain
A chuisle 's a stór ná pós an seanduine liath
Ach pós a' fear óg, mo leo, mur' maire sé ach bliain
Nó beidh tú go fóill gan ó nó mac os do chionn
A shilfeadh a'n deor tráthnóna nó'r maidin go trom
THE BOY FROM THE ERNE
I'm a boy from the Erne and I could charm a nice young girl
I would not ask for her wealth as I am rich enough myself
I own a good part of Cork, two side of the glen in Tir Eoghainn
And not to repeat myself I'm the heir of County Mayo
I will go tomorrow to make ale in the wood
Without a cot without a boat without a pinch of gruel with me
But leaves of the branches as bedclothes over my head
And think well done for you as you watch me from over there
A cowherd, my pet, I've never been accustomed to be
Instead of playing and drinking with the nice young women on the mountainside
If I lost my riches I probably didn't lose my senses
And your kiss is no more to me now than a shoe worn for a year
My darling and my love don't marry the grey old man
But marry a young man, my pet, if he only lives but a year
Or you will be without a descendant to succeed you
And you'd shed sorrowful tears from morning till night
BRAVO !
Find Leo's Tavern in Donegal. Moya sings there pretty much every month . It's her family's pub. Great spot for a night. Magical place
Sang there once in 2005 with Leo himself. What an honour. ☺️
I saw Clannad live in the summer of '76 in Gweedore, Donegal while at the gaeltacht in Loch An Iuir. A highlight of that summer it was for me agus Is buachaill on Eirne ata me.
Most beautiful rendition of a lovely song. Must admit though I was somewhat surprised to read the English translation as I had no idea ofcourse what it was actually about!! What a beautiful language Irish is on the ear!
This is so beautiful. i fell in love with it once it started
Hauntingly beautiful. Like so much celtic music it sends a shiver down my spine and puts a tear in my eye.
Hauntingly beautiful always loved Clannad 💚x
Quite right! Moya's voice is as nice as her sister Enya's to me. I just watched this and realized that the video that is shown during the music actually is, I am pretty sure, video footage for another song entirely. I think I have seen this video as a music video for the song/hymn "Athair ar Neamh" by Enya (EIthne). It is filmed in Gleann Nimhe in Dún Lúiche in the Gaoth Dobhair area where Enya, Moya and family were born and brought up. Beautiful place
Moya - incredibly haunting, wonderful voice. Thank you!
Thank Clannad!!! ❤️❤️❤️🐕🐾🥰🌷🍀🌹👋👋
I dig all music . But the traditional music of Moyà + Clannad hits me somewhere nothing else can. Close your eyes and shortly float on another plane of existence. The great music of the world will do this . As per above .
You're right as I share your feeling. I listen to Clannad and to Máire Ní Bhraonáin since I was quiet young.
I do adore their music.
Maybe...because I share the same culture as a Breton.
I agree..CLANNAD and MOYA are the best when arranging and performing original Irish folk songs....that's hiw they started they long and rich carreer
@@eoghand1719I share it too...and I am not Celtic.
I have this Clannad CD in my collection. This song does have something special, I am getting it in my head every week. Moya has an amazing voice, just superb! It's my favorite song that I am posting regularly on my Facebook wall.. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Grtz from the Netherlands..
We played this at my Grandads funeral. Beautiful song
Heavenly
Awesome song... I like this version better than any other I have heard.
Clannard is an awesome group. Thanks for posting this.
Wonderful! Full of grace!
traunhaft schönnnn ...unendliche weite
love this song won my girlfreinds heart over with it beautiful song
My Boy From Ireland....I miss you
The beautiful songs of the world gather on CZcams to roost!
Brennan family mean absolute love.
Love you moya
I love this song. I first heard it as an instrumental piece on Howard Baer's Celtic Mystique album. Interestingly if you listen to the vocal tones of the Boney M song 'I'm Born Again' they are a match tone for tone to this song!
Seriously, isn't this woman beautiful? Thank u Ireland...
Hele mooie muziek...
Their best song IMO
I love You Moyá Brennan
When I heard this song a geas was laid on me to fall in love with the first woman I danced with to it. I was very careful to dance with my wife. I was totally seduced by how beautifully Maire sings this song from the first time I heard it. The Corrs sing a nice version, but this is the best.
💯👏👏👏
moved to eire for its music : u2 clannad intua nua sinead o conner. it felt so real but the flame has gone....
I wouldn't say that. As of 2021 there are many, many fine young songwriters, singers, and musicians performing their art in Ireland, and for that matter all over the world. The concept of superstars and supergroups is waning mainly due to the advent of accessible multimedia imo.
it is beautiful,, even if the video is a bit tacky, but such a beautiful 'air' where would ye get the likes of it
Daithi...like many words in Irish, "leo" can have more than one meaning. Yes, it can mean "with them," but "mo leo," specificially, is a dialect expression meaning something along the lines of "alas."
It's more likely 'mo lao' which is an endearment meaning 'my calf' as you might say 'my lamb'...However, as I listen to her,it could be 'monuar (alas). Also, : '..Buachailleacht bó, monuar..' it's 'monuar' rather than 'leo' monuar = alas. and: '... le hógmhná deasa fán cliabh....' It's 'cliabh(bosom/chest) not 'sliabh(mountain)...'..A's cé shilfeadh an deor...and who would shead the tear...'
"Јагње моје...или Јање моје...а може и "ееех..."
Są ciary!
My roots are in Ireland, that's a fact. Shame, I don't talk any celtic language though..
Ilpo Ilves don’t worry.. Gaelic (the Irish language) is only spoken by a few thousand of people in Ireland
She has the most amazing voice, like something out of a fairy tale. Ethereal comes to mind. Miles better than all these horrible fake singers like Mariah carey, Whitney, Christina Aguilera. .
The word you're rendering as "Leo" (as if it were the name "Leo") is actually "mo leo" --.it means "alas."
It's more likely 'mo lao' which is an endearment meaning 'my calf' as
you might say 'my lamb'...However, as I listen to her,it could be
'monuar (alas). Also, : '..Buachailleacht bó, monuar..' it's 'monuar'
rather than 'leo' monuar = alas. and: '... le hógmhná deasa fán
cliabh....' It's 'cliabh(bosom/chest) not 'sliabh(mountain)...'..A's cé shilfeadh an deor...and who would shead the tear...'
It should not be written in capital..it is not a name.
a Faolrua a chara:
Cannot comprehend your comment. "leo" is simply the 3rd person plural prepositional pronoun for "le" (with) so it means "with them"
It's more likely 'mo lao' which is an endearment meaning 'my calf' as you might say 'my lamb'...
Also: '..Buachailleacht bó, monuar..' it's 'monuar' rather than 'leo' monuar = alas
yes....it is typical in Celtic and Slavic Folk songs...very often...especially in Serbian folk songs...in refrains
I learned this at school… please can someone send the lyrics 💕
Expand Jason's comment above.
You have them above...abd even twice...both in Gaelic and in English translation.

How, then, does one say: "My Pet" in Irish?
"Mo peata", I believe. (if you mean pet as an animal)
