Na Buachailli Alainn
My greetings to the boys who left us overseas,
But they left me a nice outfit to go out on Sunday,
A big coat to the ground and a beast of Strong silk,
Pants were in fashion and shoes of Spanish leather.
Oró the boys, the boys were beautiful,
Oró the boys, the boys were beautiful.
When the sea is rough, my heart is in pain,
Sighing at the boys as they are in the boats,
But I pray in the King of the Angels for the peace of the planets,
â And he saved the boys who were in danger of drowning. I received a letter from Scotland and I was not satisfied, that the boys were married to local girls.
But it's not that we wouldn't want them if they were happy,
But the girls of the islands are the ones we prefer.
