Siúil, siúil, siúil-a-rhyn
Siúil go succir agus, Siúil a go kewn
When I saw my Sally Bally Beal
come nibble in the bush shy lorey
Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill
Who could blame me cry my fill
Every tear would turn a mill
Johnny's gone for a soldier.
Siúil, siúil, siúil-a-rhyn
Siúil go succir agus, Siúil a go kewn
When I saw my Sally Bally Beal
come nibble in the bush shy lorey
Me, oh my, I loved him so,
Broke my heart to see him go,
And only time will heal my woe,
Johnny has gone for a soldier.
Siúil, siúil, siúil-a-rhyn
Siúil go succir agus, Siúil a go kewn
When I saw my Sally Bally Beal
come nibble in the bush shy lorey
I sold my flax, I sold my wheel
To buy my love a sword of steel,
that it in battle he might wield.
Johnny's gone for a soldier.
Siúil, siúil, siúil-a-rhyn
Siúil go succir agus, Siúil a go kewn
When I saw my Sally Bally Beal
come nibble in the bush shy lorey
Oh my baby, oh my love,
Gone the rainbow, gone the dove
Your father was my only love.
Johnny's gone for a soldier.
Siúil, siúil, siúil-a-rhyn
Siúil go succir agus, Siúil a go kewn
When I saw my Sally Bally Beal
come nibble in the bush shy lorey.
Teils gaelisch aber wie es bei Peter, Paul & Mary gesungen haben!
