An bhfaca tú mo Shéamuisín?
/On wok-a too muh Hay-mush-een/
Have you seen my little Jimmy?
Mo stóirín óg, mo bhuachaillín
/muh stoh-reen ohg, muh woo-kha-leen/
My little darling, my little boy.
.
An bhfaca tú mo Shéamuisín?
/On wok-a too muh Hay-mush-een/
Have you seen my little Jimmy?
Is é ‘gabháil síos an bóthar.
/shay guh-awl shees on boh-her/
As he was going down the road.
Níl bróg ar bith ar a dhá choisín.
/Neel brohg air bih air ah ghaw khush-een/
No shoes at all on his two little feet.
Ar a dhá choisín, ar a dhá choisín.
/air ah ghaw khush-een, air ah ghaw khush-een/
On his two little feet, on his two little feet.
Níl bróg ar bith ar a dhá choisín.
/Neel brohg air bih air ah ghaw khush-een/
No shoes at all on his two little feet.
Níl caipín air ná clóca.
/neel kop-een air naw kloh-ka/
Nor a cap or cloak.
Ag dul ar scoil tá Séamuisín
/egg dul air skul taw Shay-mush-een/
Going to school is little Jimmy
Mo stóirín óg, mo bhuachaillín
/muh stoh-reen ohg, muh woo-kha-leen/
My little darling, my little boy.
Ag dul ar scoil tá Séamuisín
/egg dul air skul taw Shay-mush-een/
Going to school is little Jimmy
‘S a leabharín buí sa phóca.
/sa lyow-een bwee sah foh-ka/
His little yellow book in his pocket.
Tá máilín beag, tá máilín beag
/taw maw-leen byug, taw maw-leen byug/
A little bag, a little bag
Ar a dhroim tá máilín beag
/Air ah ghrim taw maw-leen byug/
On his back is a little bag
'S a lóinsín ann is dócha.
/sa ah lohn-sheen on iss doh-kha/
And his little lunch in it, I suppose.
Ó, grá mo chroí mo Shéamuisín
/Oh, graw muh khree muh Hay-mush-een/
The love of my heart is my little Jimmy
Mo stóirín óg, mo bhuachaillín
/muh stoh-reen ohg, muh woo-kha-leen/
My little darling, my little boy.
Ó, grá mo chroí mo Shéamuisín
/Oh, graw muh khree muh Hay-mush-een/
The love of my heart is my little Jimmy
Ar maidin is tráthnóna.
/Air mod-jin iss traw-noh-na/
In the morning and in the evening.
