Mary's Spinning Wheel Video (MV)

Quiet Mary, the wool is thick
Now with the help of the High King
Tune your spinning wheel again
And with three new legs from Spain on it
A hub from London, a block from Limerick
And a spindle from Leinster above
The best silk thread in the land
And your spinning wheel will be happy.

Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-la-lu fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-lu fa-la fa-lé-rí

Mary's spinning wheel is a happy spinning wheel
It has walked much of Ireland
There's not a hill or glen where it hasn't been
That it didn't leave its qualities
It spent a day in Newry
Twisting in the mountain glens
The fairy women were on Knockmagha
Weaving with shirt material.

Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-la-lu fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-lu fa-la fa-lé-rí

TUIRNE MHAIRE

'Sé túirne mháire an túirne sásta,
Shiúil sé roinnt mhaith d'Éirinn
Níl cnoc nó glean dá ndeachaidh sé ann
Nár fhág sé cuid dá thréithe
Chaith sé lá in Iúr Cinn Trá
Ar lúb sa ngleanntáin sléibhe
Na síóga mná ar thaobh Chnoic Meadha
Do shníomh leis ábhar léine.
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-la-lu fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-lu fa-la fa-lé-rí
A Mháire chiúin, tá 'n olann ar tiús
Anois le cunamh an Árd-Rí,
Is cuir do thúirne arís i dtiúin
Is trí chos úr ón Spáinn faoi
Mol as Londain, ceap as Luimneach
Is cuigeal as Laighean in áirde
Sreang den tsíoda is fearr sa tír
Is beidh do thúirne sásta
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-la-lu fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-lu fa-la fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-la-lu fa-lé-rí
Fa-la-la, fa-la-la, fa-lu fa-la fa-lé-rí
