Pill A Run O
by Moya Brennan

Album: Signature

Curfa: Chorus (after each verse):
Pill, pill a rún o Turn, turn, my dear
Pill a rún o is na himigh uaim Turn, my dear and don't go now
Pill orm a chuisle 's a stor Turn, my own heart's dear
Agus chifidh tú 'n ghloir ma fhilleann tú And you will see God's glory if you turn again

Shúil mise thall is abhus I have traveled far and wide
I Mota Ghrainn' Óige do rugadh me Throughout Moate where I was born
'S ni fhaca aon iontas go foill And I have never yet seen such a wonder
Mar an Sagart Ó Donaill 'na mhinistir As Father O'Donaill turned Minister

Dhiúltaigh tú Peadar is Pol You denied Peter and Paul
Mar gheall ar an or 's ar an airgead Because of the gold and the silver
Dhiúltaigh tú Banrion na Gloire You denied the Queen of Glory
Agus d'iompaigh tú gcota 'n mhinistir You turned your coat and became a minister
