ONE DAY FOR RECREATION. Irish, Air (2/4 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The words to the air were composed with lines alternating in English and Irish (i.e. a "macaronic" song), which, according to Sean O Boyle (1976), reflects the bilingual period in the historical process of the supplanting of the Gaelic language by English in Ireland. One day for recreation Is gan e/inne beo im chuideachta, I spied a charming fair maid, Ina haonar is i/ i siopa istigh. She was singing like an angel, Is me/ ag e/isteacht lena binne-ghuth; I whispered soft and easy - Is e/ du/irt si/: Stad ded radaireacht!
Curfa/ <Chorus>: Anonn is anall, a Mha/iri/n, Do mha/lai/ is do bheilteanna; Is a bhean na stocai/ mba/na, Ba bhrea/ liom bheith ag iomaidh leat.
