Subject: TAB: Coinleach Glas An Fhomair - Clannad


Ok, I don't understand the words, and the tab is just a general idea of what 
is going on.
Can anyone translate the lyrics? What language *is* it? (Gaellic? Celtic?)


Coinleach Glas An Fhomair  - traditional, arr. Clannad
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
>From "PastPresent".
Tabbed by John Kean (keanj@agresearch.cri.nz).

4/4 time.

INTRO

VERSE 1:
Ar choinleach ghlas an fhomair a stoir in gurdhearc me uaim
Ba deas do chos imbroig's ba rod dheas do leagan siuil
Do ghrua ar dhath na ro sa i s' do chuini ni bhi fite dluth
Monuar gan sinn 'ar bpo sadh no 'r bord loinge 'traill 'un siuil

INTRO

VERSE 2:
Ta buachailli na haite seo ag athru 'gus ag eiri teann
Is lucht na gcocan ard a'deanamh farais do mo chailin donn
Da ngluaiseadh Ri na Spainne thar saile 's a shloite cruin
Bhrufainn fear is fasach 's bheinn ar laimh le mo chailin donn

INTRO

VERSE 3:
Ceannacht buaibh ar aontai da mbinn agus mo chailin donn
Gluais is tar a cheadsearc no go dte mind thar Ghaoth Bearra 'nonn
Go scartar ona cheile barr na gcraobh agus an eala on toinn
Ni scarfar sinn o cheile 's nil ach baois daoibh a chur in bhur gcionn
