Bean Phaidin - Planxty

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S é'n trua nach mise bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Rachainn go Gallaí go Gallaí

Is rachainn go Gallaí le Pháidín

Rachainn go Gallaí go Gallaí

Is thiocfainn abhaile sa mbád leis

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S é'n trua nach mise bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Rachainn go haonach an Chlocháin

Is siar go Béal Á' na Báighe

Bhreathnóinn isteach tríd an bhfuinneog

A' súil is go bhfeicfinn bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S é'n trua nach mise bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa

Go mbristear do chosa 'bean Pháidín

Go mbristear do chosa, do chosa

Go mbristear do chosa 's do chnámha

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S é'n trua nach mise bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua nach mise, nach mise

'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga

Chaith mé mo bhróga i ndiaidh Pháidín

Chaith mé mo bhróga, mo bhróga

Chaith mé na boinn is na sála

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

It's a pity I'm not Paddy's wife

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

His wife is lost

I would go from Gaul to Gaul

I would go to Gallaí with Páidín

I would go from Gaul to Gaul

I would come home in the boat with him

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

It's a pity I'm not Paddy's wife

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

His wife is lost

I would go to the Clifden fair

It is west to Béal Á 'na Báighe

I look in through the window

Hoping to see Paddy's wife

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

It's a pity I'm not Paddy's wife

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

His wife is lost

May your legs be broken, your feet

May your feet be broken '

May your legs be broken, your feet

May your legs and bones be broken

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

It's a pity I'm not Paddy's wife

It's a pity it's not me, it's not me

His wife is lost

I wore my shoes, my shoes

I wore my shoes after Paddy

I wore my shoes, my shoes

I wore the soles and heels
