Connie Dover - Siuil A Ruin lyrics

I would I were on yonder hill It's there i'd sit and cry my fill And every tear would turn a mill Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan 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 Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan REFRAIN: Siuil, siuil. siuil, a ruin Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin Siuil go doras ealaigh liom Is go dte tu mo mhuirin slan I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red And it's round the world I beg for bread Until my parents would wish me dead Is go dte tu mo mhuirin slan I wish, I wish, I wish in vain I wish I had my heart again And vainly thnk i'd not complain Is go dte tu mo mhuirin slan And now my love hsa gone to France To try his fortune to advance If he e'er comes bcak 'tis but a chance Is go dte tu mo mhuirin slan REFRAIN
