Tá bean in Éirinn a phronnfadh séad domh
      Am          D/A
Is mo sháith le n-ól
              Am7                 D/A

Ó bhean ar aonach, nach ait an scéala,
      Cadd9       D               G
Is mo dháimh féin leo, tá bean ab fhearr liom
           Em               Dsus2       Cadd9
Nó cath is céad dhíobh nach bhfagham go deo
             Am7          Cadd9    D
Is tá cailín spéiriúil ag fear gan Bhéarla,
     Cadd9 D   G
Dubhghránna   cróin

There's a woman in Ireland who'd give me a gem,
And my fill to drink,
There's a woman in Ireland,
To whom my singing is sweeter than the music of strings,
There's a woman in Ireland,
Who would much prefer me leaping,
Than laid in the clay and my belly under the sod
 
There's a woman in Ireland who'd envy me,
If I got naught but a kiss from a woman at a fair,
Isn't it strange and the love I have for them,
There's a woman I'd prefer to a battalion,
And a hundred of them whom I will never get,
And an ugly, swarthy man with no English has a beautiful girl
 
There's a woman who would say,
That if I walked with her I'd get the gold,
And there's the woman of the shirt
Whose mien is better than herds of cows,
With a woman who would deafen Baile an Mhaoir
And the plain of Tyrone,
And I see no cure for my disease, but to have a drink
