Siil, siil, siil a rin
Siil go sochair agus siil go ciin
Siil go doras agus alaigh liom [Chorus:]
Siil, siil, siil a rin
Siil go sochair agus siil go ciin
Siil go doras agus alaigh liom
Is go dt t mo mhirnn sln I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill
Until every tear would turn a mill 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 [Chorus] I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red
And 'round the world I'll beg my bread
Until my parents shall wish me dead
