Oh I was one day in Port Láirge (Waterford) Fall dow fall dee etc.... is music "lilting" and is not translatable There was wine and punch on a table there (clár = blank of timber) Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um There was a housefull of women there Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um And I drinking to their health Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um A woman from Rath escaped with me Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um And three from Tiobráid d'Árainn Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um Their families weren’t happy (satisfied) Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um They werе only half happy (satisfied) Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um And onе woman escaped from me with a weak/effeminate man Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um And she wasn't very nice to me Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um The three from Tiobráid d'Árainn Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um They came back with me Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um Oh I’ll leave Carraig (place name) tomorrow Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um And I'll bring a fine girl with me Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um We will go through the small gap together Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um North to Tiobráid d'Árainn Fall dow fall dee fall-lah dad-eye-um
