    I stumbled across this wonderful song for children and need help translating. (apologies I am a new user and cannot add full link)

    (wwwdot)soundcloud.com/muscrai/an-leipreachain

    Should be easy as it is a children's song and I am only missing one verse.


    I got the below from Google but you will hear there is an extra verse in there.


    Ar mo thaisteal dom aon oíche amháin is mé ag dul síos an gleann

    A chonaic mé an leipreachán is é faoi scath na gcrann

    Bhí tic-tac-tic ar a bhróig aige ‘s an bhróigín ar a ghlúin

    Ó, thosaigh mé ag magadh faoi – ach bhí seisean ag magadh fúm.

    ‘Dia dhuit, a fhírín bhig,’ ars mé, ‘sín chugam do phróca óir’

    ‘Tá an t-ór,’ ar sé, ‘ag an tsí-bhean úd ina seasamh ar an ród.’

    Go héadtrom ciúin do dhruideas leis – ó, bhí sé agam dar liom!

    Ó, thosaigh mé ag magadh faoi – ach bhí seisean ag magadh fúm.

    Ó, thosaigh mé ag magadh faoi – ach bhí seisean ag magadh fúm.
