edmund of the hill ned of the hill
edmund of the hill (ned of the hill)
“oh who is without
that with p-ssionate shout
keeps beating my bolted door?”
“i am ned of the hill
forspent wet and chill
from long trudging marsh and moor”
“my love, fond and true
what else could i do
but shield you from wind and from weather?
when the shots fall like hail
they us both shall -ssail
and mayhap we shall die together.”
“through forest and through snow
tired and hunted i go
in fear both from friend and from neighbor
my horses run wild
my acres untilled
and they all of them lost to my labor
but it grieves me far more
than the loss of my store
that there’s none who would shield me from danger
so my fate it must be
to fare eastward o’er sea
and languish amid the stranger”
“ce-h-e sin amuh
go bhfuil faor ar a ghuth
a’ reaba mo dhoruis dunta?”
“mise eamonn a’ chnuic
ta baidhte fuar fliuch
o shior-shuil sleihbte is gleannta”
“a lao ghil’s a chuid
cad do dheannfainn-se dhuit
mara gcuirfinn ort beinn dom ghuna?
‘s go mbeidh pudar dubh
is go mbeimis araon muchta”
“is fada mise amuh
faoi shneachta is faoi shioc
is gan danacht agam ar einne
mo bhranar gan cur
mo sheisreach gar sgur
is gan iad agam ar aon chor
nil caraid agam
(is danaid liom san)
do ghlacfadh me moch na deanach
is go gcaithfe me dul
thar fairrge soir
o’s ann na fuil mo ghaolta”
