Port Na bPúcaí

Is bean ón slua sí mé, do tháinig thar toinn
( I am a woman from the fairy host who traveled over the seas)

Is do goideadh san oíche me tamall thar lear
( I was stolen in the night and taken beyond the sea)

Is go bhfuilim as ríocht seo fé gheas' mná sídhe
( And I am held hostage in the kingdom by the fairy women)

Is ní bheidh ar an saol seo ach go nglaofaidh an coileach
(And I can only be in this world until the moment the cock crows)

Is caitheadsa féin tabhairt fá'n deis isteach
( I know I have tasks to do here)

Ni thaithneamh liom é ach caithfead tabhairt fé
(Which I do not like but must comply with)

Is caitheadsa féin tabhairt fén lios isteach
( I must return to the fort and do not have anything to do)

Is ná déinig aon ní leis an dream thíos sa leas
(With this body of fairy people down in the fairy mound)
