Peigín is Peadar
Peggy and Peter
ga
english
Peigín is Peadar a bhí seal ina gcónaí
I mbothán beag aerach ar bhruach na trá
Is dá mba leat féin mé a Pheadar na póige
Ní bheinn choíche brónach ná buartha go brách
Peggy and Peter who lived for a while
In a neat little cabin on the edge of the strand
If you were mine Peter of the kisses
I would never be sorrowful or troubled forever
Ní ólfaidh mé deoir den uisce beatha
Ná cuirfidh mé scilling ar chártaí go brách
Mura dtuga tú féin dom do lámh is do phóg
A Pheigín na gáire is na gcraobhfholt álainn
I will not drink a drop of the whiskey
Nor put a shilling on cards ever again
Unless you give me your hand and your kiss
O laughing Peggy of the beautiful flowing hair
