Caide Sin Do'n Te Sin Lyrics - Clannad

I went to the fair and sold my cow 

For five pounds of silver and a yellow guinea of gold 

If I drink the silver and if I give away the gold 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I drink the silver and if I give away the gold 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I go to the leafy woods gathering berries or chestnuts 

Plucking apples from branches or herding cows 

If I stretch out for a while beneath a tree relaxing 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I stretch out for a while beneath a tree relaxing 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I go for a night-visit and for dancing and sport 

To fairs and races and every gathering of that sort 

If I see happy people and if I'm happy with them 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I see happy people and if I'm happy with them 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

People say, "I'm without riches, no doubt 

Without goods or clothes or cattle or stock" 

If I a happy living in a hovel 

O, what is that to anyone else? 

If I a happy living in a hovel 

O, what is that to anyone else?
