“Neilí”
O Neilí, Neilí, Neilí,
O Neilí, Neilí, an fuacht.
O Neilí, Neilí, Neilí,
An ghaoth aniar, aneas, aduaidh.
Lig isteach mé, scaoil amach mé,
Lig dom suí cois tine leat,
Tabhair dom práta arm o phláta,
‘S beadsa grámhar, maoineach leat.
Translation: Nelly
Oh Nelly, Nelly, Nelly,
Oh Nelly, Nelly, the cold.
Oh Nelly, Nelly, Nelly,
The west, south and north wind.
Let me in, let me out,
Let me sit beside you by the fire,
Give me a potato on my place,
And I’ll be loving and treasured to you. ... [posted by ceolachan to thesession.org [1], 2013]
