    This is a lively tune
    Does anyone have lyrics and possibly translations, please?



    Oh, I found them!!

    De ni mi ma chaill mi 'n t-each
    Ma chaill mi 'n t-each, horo mo chreach
    De ni mi ma chaill mi 'n t-each
    An t-each a thug mi a Bhallaidh.
    De ni mi ma chaill mi 'n t-each
    A chionn gun robh a sheorsa math
    De ni mi ma chaill mi 'n t-each
    'S nach fhaigh mi fear 'n aite.

    Thug mi dh' Ard-a-Mhorain thu
    Gu fiar airson do thoileachadh
    'S ann thoisich thu ri conas rium
    Nach toir thu dhomh buntata.
    Thug mi dh' Ard-a-Mhorain thu
    Gu fiar airson do thoileachadh
    'S ann thoisich thu ri conas rium
    Nach toir thu dhomh buntata.

    (Chorus)

    Thug mi do'n a feille thu
    'S a choin cha d'fhuair mi eisdeachd ort
    'S ann thoisich iad ri Beurla rium
    'S nach tuiginn fhein ach Gaidhlig.
    Thug mi do'n a feille thu
    'S a choin cha d'fhuair mi eisdeachd ort
    'S ann thoisich iad ri Beurla rium
    'S nach tuiginn fhein ach Gaidhlig.
    What will I do if I lose the horse
    If I lose the horse, horo, my goodness
    What will I do if I lose the horse
    The horse that I brought to Ballaidh
    What will I do if I lose the horse
    Because he was a good one
    What will I do if I lose the horse
    And don't find one in his place

    I brought you to Ard-a-Morain
    For your pleasure
    Then you started to quarrel with me
    That you didn't bring me potatoes
    I brought you to Ard-a-Morain
    For your pleasure
    Then you started to quarrel with me
    That you didn't bring me potatoes

    (Chorus)

    I took you to the fair
    Because I couldn't get you to listen
    Then they started speaking English to me
    And I understood only Gaelic.
    I took you to the fair
    Because I couldn't get you to listen
    Then they started speaking English to me
    And I understood only Gaelic.

    Gott zur Ehr, dem nächsten zur Wehr

    What if they gave a fire and nobody came.
