The Lark In The Clear Air / Olam Punch - The Chieftains, Punch Brothers

Ólaim puins is ólaim tae

Is an lá ina dhiaidh sin ólaim toddaí

Ní bhím ar meisce ach uair sa ré

Mo ghrása an déirc is an té do cheap í

Lá má bhím le híota tréith

Bím lá 'na dhiaidh ag glaoch na gcannaí

Lá le fíon is arís gan bhraon

Mo ghrása an déirc is an té do cheap í

Ólaim puins srl

AAr mo theacht a luí ar thréad

An bhuí san fhéith is na héimhe ag leanaí

Báisteach fhill is rinn ar ghaoth

Ó, táim le déirc ní baol do mo gharraí

Ólaim puins srl

Is sámh a bhím i mo luí le gríin

Gan suim sa saol ach sclíip is starraíocht

Gan cháin gan chíos ach m’intinn saor

Nach fearr í an déirc ná céird is ealaín!

Ólaim puins srl

I drink punch and I drink tea

The next day I drink cigars

I only get drunk once in a while

My love is almsgiving and the one who conceived it

A day if I have a characteristic iota

The next day I call the cans

A day with wine and again without a drop

My love is almsgiving and the one who conceived it

I drink puns etc.

On my arrival to impress a flock

The yellow in the vein and the tenderness of children

Rain returned and a gust of wind

Oh, I am a beggar not a danger to my garden

I drink puns etc.

I lie quietly in the sun

Not interested in life but skipping and storytelling

No tax no rent but my mind is free

Is not alms better than crafts and art!

I drink puns etc.
