An Gabhar Ban (The White Goat) Lyrics

Sa tsean ghleann thiar a bhi sГ­ raibh

Go dtГ­ gur fhГ¡s na hadharc' uirthi

Bliain is cГ©ad is corradh laethe

Go dtГ¡inig an aois go trГ©an uirthi

Bhi sГ­ gcrГі bheag ins an cheo

Go dtГ¡inig feil'Eoin is gur Г©alaigh sГ­

Thart an rГіd san bealach mГіr

Gur lean a tГіir go gear uirthi.

Ni raibh nduine ar a tГіir ach Donnchu Гіg

Is d'ith sГ­ an lГіn san t-anlann air

Ni raibh aige ina dhorn ach ceap tuine mГіr

Agus leag sГ© anuas Гіn arradh Г­

Nuair a chuala an gabhar bГ¡n go raibh sГ­ ar lГ¡r

Thug sГ­ lГ©im chun tГ¡rrthГ¡la

Thug sГ­ rГ¡s 's ni raibh sГ­ sГ¡sta

Is leag sГ­ spГ­on an tГ¡illiura.

Chomh cruinn le rГіn gur thГіg sГ­ feoil

Gan pis gan mГіrГ¡n dГ©ibhirce

Ach d'ith sГ­ cib agus barr an fhraoich

SlГ¡nlus min is craobhГіgai

Draoin is dreas is cuilcann glas

Gach nГ­ ar dhath na h-Г¡inleoga

CutharГ¡n slГ©ibhe, duilliur fГ©ile

Caora srГ©ana agus blainsГ©ogai.

Chuaigh sГ­ dhГ­ol cios le CaiftГ­n Spits

Is chraethnaigh a croi go dtrГ©igfГ­ Г­

Chaith sГ­ an oГ­che ar bheagГ¡n bidh

Mar nduil is go geasfaГ­ fГ©ar uirthi

D'Fan sГ­ 'a Гіiche i dtГіin Ros Coill

Is chaith sГ­ Г© go plГ©isura

Go dtГ¡inig an slua ar maidin go luath

Is thug siad amach as Йirinn Г­.
