Ní iarrfain de spré le Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh
Ach baile Inis Gé is cead éaló ar choiníní.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
Comhairle do mháithrín, éalaigh is imigh liom.
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh
But the townland of Inishkea and permission to hunt rabbits.
Óró Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
The advice of your mother is to elope and go with me.
Is máistir báid mhóir mé ag dul ród na Gaillimhe,
D'fhliuchfainn naoi bhfód is ní thógfainn aon fharraige.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
A chuisle is a stóirín, éalaigh is imigh liom.
I'm the master of a great boat that travels the sea to Galway,
I might wet nine sods but I wouldn't ship water.
Óró, Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
My love and my darling, elope and go with me.
Máistir báid mhóir go deo ní ghlacfaidh mé,
Nuair a fhaigheann siad an chóir is dóigh nach bhfanann siad.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
Comhairle do mháithrín, éalaigh is imigh liom.
The master of a great boat I'd never accept,
For when they get a favourable wind it's likely they won't stay.
Óró, Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
The advice of your mother is to elope and go with me.
Is máistir báid mhóir go deo ni ghlacfaidh mé,
Nuair a fhaigheann siad an chóir is dóigh nach bhfanann siad.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,

For when they get a favourable wind it's likely they won't stay.
Óró, Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
My love and my darling, elope and go with me.
Níl folach a cabhaile ar Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh
Ach sean-chóitín donn gan chabhail gan mhuinchille.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
A chuisle is a stóirín, éalaigh is imigh liom.
Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh doesn't have what would cover her body,
But a little brown coat without body or sleeve.
Óró, Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
My love and my darling, elope and go with me.
Fear maith i mbád mé is togha fear iomartha,
Fear sluasaid is lái ar dha cheann an iomaire.
Óró, a Shadhbh, a Shadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
A chuisle is a stóirín, éalaigh is imigh liom.
I'm a good man in a boat and a great man to row,
I'm a good man with a spade and a loy on the two sides of the drill.
Óró, Sadhbh, Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh,
My love and my darling, elope and go with me.
A light humourous song attributed to Labhrás Mac Con Raoi from Mace Head, Co. Mayo, a boatman who ranged the coasts of Mayo and Galway. He is said to have composed it between 1815 and 1821, and the woman in the song is said to have been from Inishkea, Co. Mayo. It is often called "Sadhbh Ní Mhuinghile."

Irish culture and heritage is of music and Sean no’s is imbedded in the very soul of the culture and landscape/ language nature.
Mouth music indeed would of been taken to west of Scotland and its heritage is Irish in origin.
Sounds so close to Mouth Music (Puirt a beul) from Scotland's west coast and waulking songs. Beautiful.
I am almost 85 ,and all my life the Irish language has been a major problem for me .I just got it by the skin of my teeth for my leaving cert ,and now 60 years later it is still a major problem for me.Listening to Irish music I would love to be able to understand the beautiful language.
About twenty yrs ago, my friend told me what this song is about as well as she could. She got it very close to the translation provided here, but she said the captain really messed
up when he told Sadhbh that he could see by her worn out clothes that she needed a man like himself. My friend thought she was probably offended by this and that Sadhbh and the captain didn't get together.
love the lilting melody - infectious AND healing beat !!!!!
Seems like a great guy. The "I'll look after the rest" comment is really witty
Yes truly- you will not meet a more gentle man than Liam
I really like this song. Thanks for adding the translation to it.
Blessings and Peace.
Doug.
This reminds me of a weaving song, with the tempo he's using. Really great. Keep coming back to listen. lol Thanks. :))
Gwid01 I think this about a lot of music. As someone who does weave and waulk what she weaves as nice to see someone else who knows.
Thanks for putting this up, its brilliant. I left Ballincollig in 2003 for a year- not really been back since..funny how that happens!
leagan iontach, ceolaim an ceann seo leis na garpháistí agus muid ag luascadh ar an chroichtín nuair a bhionn an aimsir go maith.
Thanks for putting this version up !
wishing you all a safe and happy weekend-love peace and respect
awesome, this has broadened my horizons a little. thanks for putting it up!
love it ty for posting
A legend and a song of beauty
How has this only got 5k views?
Liam has a good voice and sound, though I have no idea what he is saying.. Guess not many understand that language.
its called gaelic its irish its the most wonderful language in this world i'm proud
@81drifty Did he grow up in the Gaeltachtai? Just curious. Thanks.
He did not, he just learned the pronunciation of the language properly, unlike most Gaelscoil and Gaelcholáiste students (sadly) who think it's cooler to speak Irish with English phonetics
what were they saying before the song ??
