Mo Ghrása 1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Níl mo ghrása | My Love is not |
| Mar bhláth na nairne | like the flower of the sloe |
| A bhíonn i ngairdín | that are in gardens |
| nó ar chrann ar bith | or on any tree |
| is má tá aon ghaol aige le nóininí | and if he's to be associated with daisies |
| is as a chluasa a fhásfaidh siad | its from his ears they'll grow |
| nuair a bheidh sé ocht dtroigh síos | when he'll be eight feet down |
| Ní haon ghlaise chelomhar | there's no musical greenness |
| iad a shúile | his eyes |
| táid róchóngarach ar an gcéad dul síos | they're too close together in the first place |
| is más slim é síoda | and if silk is smooth |
| Tá ribí a ghruaige | his hair is like |
| mar bhean dhubh Shakespeare | Like Shakespeare's blackhaired woman |
| ina wire deilgní | like barbed wire |
| Ach is cuma sin | But that doesn't matter |
| Tugann sé dom úlla | He gives me apples |
| is nuair a bhíonn sé i ndea-ghiúmar caora fíniúna | and when he's in good humour grapes |
