"Hares On The Mountain" lyrics

"Hares On The Mountain"

If all you young men
Were hares on the mountain
How many young girls
Would take guns and go hunting?
Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

If the young men could sing
Like blackbirds and thrushes
How many young girls
Would go beating the bushes?
Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

If all you young men
Were fish in the water
How many young girls
Would undress and dive after
Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

But the young men are given
To friskin' and foolin'
So I'll leave them alone
And attend to my schooling
Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath

Coineanach amaideach
Oidhche mhath
