Sean O Griffín
Bhuel de thug mé cos ar an siúlóid mhór
Thart ar lár an lae
Is de bhuail mé le cailín breá dathúil
Agus thosaíomar ag plé.
Curfá
Agus n'fheadar liom,
Cad a thiocfaidh orm.
Lena gruaig chomh dubh
Is a súile gorm.
Ach thóg mé a lámh.
Thug mé rince di,
Agus phóg mé cailín na Gaillimhe.
Bhíomar leath-shlí tríd nuair a d'oscail an spéir
Níos déanaí ins an lae.
Agus rith muid síos chuig an árasán
Chomh bog an lae i-ay.
Curfá
Bhuel de dhúisigh mé agus mé liom féin
D'fhág sí mé i-ay
Le mo chroí bhríste bhí pian laistigh
Agus n'fheadar liom,
Cad a tharlaíonn linn.
Nuair a chasamar leis an gcailín sin
Tá feicthe agam
Gach uile naomh
Ach ní a leithéid le cailín na Gaillimhe.

Well I took a walk on the big walk (Salthill Prom)
Around this middle of the day
And I met with a nice beautiful girl
And we started to talk.
Chorus:
And I don’t know what it was,
What came over me.
With her black hair
And her blue eyes.
And I took her hand.
I gave her a dance,
And I kissed the Galway Girl.
We were half way there when the rain came down
Later in the day.
And we ran down to her apartment
On a fine soft day.
Chorus
Well when I woke and I was by myself
She left me
With a broken heart with a pain inside
And I don’t know what it was,
What came over me.
When I met with that girl
I've seen all
there is to see,
But nothing the likes of the Galway Girl.
Thart ar lár an lae
