English Lyrics Translation
CORK HARBOUR
 
I was in Cork Harbour one morning at the break of day
And everyone was happy there, no one was sad
 
 
Oh Richard, said Morris, and Morris said Twm
We’d better reef the sails, before the bad weather sets in
 
 
Oh Twm bach from Caerfarnon and Morris, it’s threatening wind and rain
The white horses will be out, and Twm answering ‚Quiet’
 
 
The wind will return to the North, we’ll have fair weather again
And the ship will walk with a bone in it’s mouth
