Translation
Mrs. Fadden
[Chorus:]
It's a great pity that I'm not, that I'm not
It's a great pity that I'm not Páidín's wife
It's a great pity that I'm not, that I'm not
And the woman that he has to be dead
I would go to Galway, to Galway
And I would go to Galway with Páidín
I would go to Galway, to Galway
And I would return in the boat with him
[Chorus]
Oh, I go to Galway, to Galway,
Oh, I go to Galway with Páidín
Oh, we go to Galway together
And sail away home in a báidín
[Chorus]
I look through the window, the window
I look through the window for Páidín
His wife is just sitting there, knitting
While I'm stuck outside in the garden
I wish I was wedded, was wed,
I wish I was wedded to Páidín
He's chosen to marry another
And that is the cause of my raging
I would go to an Clochán
And west by Béal Á' na Báighe
I would look in through the windows
I would spot Páidín's wife
[Chorus]
I wish he were taken, were taken
The beautiful wife of my Páidín
He'd not be forsaken, forsaken
I'd still take my place there beside him
[Chorus]
May your legs be broken, be broken
May your legs be broken, Páidín's wife
May your legs be broken, be broken
May your legs and your bones be broken.
