My favorite Elane's song *-*

Lyrics:

I wish I was on yonder hill

'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill

And every tear would turn a mill

Is go dtí tú mo mhuirnín slán

Chorus:

Shule Shule Shule aroon

shule go succir agus,

shule go kewn shule,

go dheen durrus oggus aylig lume

Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel

I'll sell my only spinning wheel

To buy my love a sword of steel

Is go dtí tú mo mhuirnín slán

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red

And it's round the world I'll beg for bread

Until my parents shall wish me dead

Is go dtí tú mo mhuirnín slán

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain

I wish I had my heart again

And vainly think I'd not complain

Is go dtí tú mo mhuirnín slán

And now my love has gone to France

to try his fortune to advance

If he e'er comes back 'tis but a chance

Is go dtí tú mo mhuirnín slán

Thanks to everybody who commented and directed me to the lyrics :)

I really like this song. The first time I listened to it, was on the Lord of The Dance show, but this version sounds really nice. Siuil, siuil, siuil ai ruin ㄟ( ̄▽ ̄ㄟ)

This singer is pushing so much air through her vocal cords, it may have a desired effect, but she certainly won't be singing when she's 50

Shule Aroon is closer to a Scots dialect. Aroon meaning around :) Siuil a Ruin, it's been done by Clannad :) Slainte mhaithe

@HexReinette It's actually "Siuil a Ruin/Run" =) Yeh, it's an Irish Folk Song, but it's likely it's original lyrics and meaning are lost to time, especially since the song was traditionally all in Gaelic

@Walex87 Yeah, as far as I know it's just an irish folk song - the title's sometimes spelt 'siul a run' or 'siul a ruin' instead of 'shule aroon' ^^

@Alazais It isn't a "cover". This is a very old folk song.

Nothing simpler :) The song is called "Siúil A Rúin" - that means Walk, my love. If you search by that title, you'll find the lyrics.

Is go d-teidh tu, a mhurnin, slan ! Siubhail, siubhail, siubhail, a ruin ! Siubhail go socair, agus siubhail go ciuin, Siubhail go d-ti an doras agus eulaigh liom, Is go d-teidh tu, a mhurnin, slan !*
