Hi all.
I have listened to this song and although the Irish seems to be very easy there are a few times I simply don't know what he is singing.

I found it on spotify and can't seem to find it elsewhere on line.
Here is the spotify link

Or will take requests for Irish lyrics of well know songs.

BTW: Here’s a Scottish Gaelic version by Àdhamh Ó Broin:
