[00:00.00]Cailin Deas Cruite Na Mbo - Cathie Ryan
[00:17.68]It being on a fine summer's morning
[00:24.38]As the birds sweetly tuned on each bower
[00:31.29]I heard a fair maid sing most charming
[00:38.35]As she sat milking her cow
[00:45.73]Her voice was enchanting melodious
[00:52.86]Which left me scarce able to go
[00:59.39]My heart it was soothed with solace
[01:06.65]By the cailín deas crúite na mbó
[01:22.53]I courteously did salute her
[01:29.67]“Good morning most amiable maid
[01:36.38]I'm your captive slave for the future”
[01:43.54]“Kind sir do not banter ” she said
[01:50.40]“I'm not such a precious rare jewel
[01:56.22]That I should enamour you so
[02:04.00]I am but a plain county girl”
[02:11.21]Says the cailín deas crúite na mbó
[02:32.58]“The Indies afford no such jewels
[02:39.32]So precious so transparent clear
[02:46.09]Oh do not refuse me my jewel
[02:53.32]Consent now and love me my dear
[03:00.59]For riches I care not a farthing
[03:06.48]It's your love that I want and no more
[03:14.07]I'd rather live poor on the mountain
[03:21.42]With my cailín deas crúite na mbó”
[03:56.38]“I don't understand what you mean sir
[04:03.16]I ne'er was a slave yet to love
[04:10.08]For these feelings I have no desire
[04:17.26]I pray your affection remove
[04:24.05]To marry I can assure you
[04:30.19]That state I will not undergo
[04:36.91]I'm prepared to live single and airy”
[04:44.46]Says the cailín deas crúite na mbó
