An Bhean BhuileAmhrán na Bealtaine ní chanfaidh mé. Amhrán mar sin is cóir bheith aerach. Fanfaidh mé go dtí mí na Samhna Is canfad os ard laoi na léithe. Fanfaidh mé go dtí mí na Samhna Sin é an tráth a oireann domhsa. Raghadsa amach ar oíche sheaca Is canfad im’ ghósta. Is stánfaidh na miondaoine orm: “Féach mar atá an scéal– An Bhean Bhuile ag canadh – I mí na Bealtaine ní osclódh sí a béal!” THE CRAZY WOMANI shall not sing a May song. A May song should be gay. I'll wait until November And sing a song of gray. I'll wait until November That is the time for me. I'll go out in the frosty dark And sing most terribly. And all the little people Will stare at me and say, "That is the Crazy Woman Who would not sing in May." |
