Текст песни Limerick Rake - Christy Moore
I
am
a
young
fellow
that's
easy
and
bold,
In
Castletown
conners
I'm
very
well
known.
In
Newcastle
West
I
spent
many
a
note,
With
Kitty
and
Judy
and
Mary.
My
father
rebuked
me
for
being
such
a
rake,
And
spending
my
time
in
such
frolicsome
ways,
But
I
ne'er
could
forget
the
good
nature
of
Jane,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
My
parents
had
reared
me
to
shake
and
to
mow,
To
plough
and
to
harrow,
to
reap
and
to
sow.
But
my
heart
being
airy
to
drop
it
so
low,
I
set
out
on
high
speculation.
On
paper
and
parchment
they
taught
me
to
write,
In
Euclid
and
Grammar
they
opened
my
eyes,
And
in
Multiplication
in
truth
I
was
bright,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
If
I
chance
for
to
go
to
the
town
of
Rathkeale,
The
girls
all
round
me
do
flock
on
the
square.
Some
give
me
a
bottle
and
others
sweet
cakes,
To
treat
me
unknown
to
their
parents,
There
is
one
from
Askeaton
and
one
from
the
Pike,
Another
from
Arda,
my
heart
was
beguiled,
Tho'
being
from
the
mountains
her
stockings
are
white,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
To
quarrel
for
riches
I
ne'er
was
inclined,
For
the
greatest
of
misers
must
leave
them
behind.
I'll
purchase
a
cow
that
will
never
run
dry,
And
I'll
milk
her
by
twisting
her
horn.
John
Damer
of
Shronel
had
plenty
of
gold,
And
Devonshire's
treasure
is
twenty
times
more,
But
he's
laid
on
his
back
among
nettles
and
stones,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
This
cow
can
be
milked
without
clover
or
grass,
For
she's
pampered
with
corn,
good
barley
and
hops.
She's
warm
and
stout,
and
she's
free
in
her
paps,
And
she'll
milk
without
spancil
or
halter.
The
man
that
will
drink
it
will
cock
his
caubeen,
And
if
anyone
coughs
there'll
be
wigs
on
the
green,
And
the
feeble
old
hag
will
get
supple
and
free,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
If
I
chance
for
to
go
to
the
market
at
Croom,
With
a
cock
in
my
hand
and
my
pipes
in
full
tune,
I
am
welcome
at
once
and
brought
up
to
a
room,
Where
Bacchus
is
sporting
with
Venus.
There's
Peggy
and
Jane
from
the
town
of
Bruree,
And
Biddy
from
Bruff
and
we
all
on
the
spraoí,
Such
a
combing
of
locks
as
there
was
about
me,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
There's
some
say
I'm
foolish
and
more
say
I'm
wise,
But
being
fond
of
the
women
I
think
is
no
crime,
For
the
son
of
King
David
had
ten
hundred
wives,
And
his
wisdom
was
highly
recorded.
I'll
take
a
good
garden
and
live
at
my
ease,
And
each
woman
and
child
can
partake
of
the
same,
If
there's
war
in
the
cabin,
themselves
they
may
blame,
Agus
fágaimíd
siúd
mar
atá
sé.
And
now
for
the
future
I
mean
to
be
wise,
And
I'll
send
for
the
women
that
acted
so
king,
And
I'll
marry
them
all
on
the
morrow
by
and
by,
If
the
clergy
agree
to
the
bargain.
And
when
I'm
on
my
back
and
my
soul
is
at
peace,
These
women
will
crowd
for
to
cry
at
my
wake,
And
their
sons
and
their
daughters
will
offer
their
prayer,
To
the
Lord
for
the
soul
of
their
father.
