Bunan Bui Lyrics - Clannad

A Bhuinnen Bhu is mo chr do lu 

Is do chnmha snte ar leaca lom' 

Is nach dtearn t dth no dolaidh sa tr 

Is narbh fhearr leat fon n uisce poill. 

D gcuirfe scala f mo dhin 

Go raibh t i ngibhinn n i ndeacair iot' 

bhainfinnse bim ar Loch Mhic an in 

A fhliuchfadh do bhal is do bhrollach sos. 

 

N hiad bhur n-anlaith at m ag agaoin 

An chuach, an traona n an chorr-bhreac 

Ach an Buinnen Bu, a bh ln de chro 

Is gur cosil liom fin i snua is i ndreach. 

Bhodh s ag sorl na d 

Is deir daoine go mbm ar an ns sin seal 

Is nl braon d bhfuighinn nach ligfinn sos 

Ar fhaitos go bhfuighinn fin bs den tart! 

 

Is 'd'iarr mo str orm ligint den l 

N nach mbeinnse beo ach seal beag gearr: 

Is dirt m li gur chan s an bhrag 

N go mb'fhaide do mo shaol an braon seo a fhil. 

Nach bhfeiceann t an an phobin ridh 

Go dteachaidh s in ag den tart ar ball? 

Is a dhaoine clibh, fliuchaig bhur mbal 

N n bhfuighidh sibh braon i ndiaidh bhur mbis! 

Oh Yellow Bittern, alas to see you stretched 

And your bones there lying on bare flagstones 

You did no harm at all in the country 

And would just as prefer ditch water to wine 

Had you only sent me a message 

That you were in a quandry, in need of a drink 

I would have broken the ice on the lake 

To wet your beak and all the way down to your breast. 

 

I'm not lamenting your ordinary birds 

The cuckoo, the corncrake or the dappled heron 

But the yellow bittern of the great heart 

Who was just like me in many ways 

He was always fond of the sup 

And people say I'm fond of a drop myself 

Whatever drink comes my way, it's down it goes 

For fear that I might one day die of thirst!
