SáƒÂ­le Na GcáƒÂ­och (sheila)
Sá­le I brought you a dress I found on the side of the road and though I know you're deservin' of the best it's all I could be bringin' ya on my own and Sá­le this dark and flowered dress I washed it out by hand till the flowers shone reminding me of how you stand out from the rest your smiling eyes in these darkened days we've known (chorus:) chuir sá­ uirthi é (she put it on) chuir sá­ uirthi é (she put it on) an gáºna dubh 's blá¡thanna (the dark and flowered dress) chuir sá­ uirthi é (she put it on) Sá­le you're young and in your prime and me my hair's already turnin' gray and oh how the tongues will go clickety-clack in time how the dogs will bark when the caravan's on its way and Sá­le in spite of all of this in the mist behind of Jimmy Long's house my memory does linger long on a kiss till this moon ran away behind the clouds (repeat chorus) SongtexteSá­le not to frighten you away but there are crosses by the side of the road where many a traveler has met up with his fate and mine will be no different I know and Sá­le a traveler you would be if this dark and flowered dress you would wear but though your heart be broken, though the priests turn you away I could love you well if you would only dare (repeat chorus) Aus Songtexte Mania
