Meighallo

Meighallo

Meighallo

I left Corme during the daySalín de Corme con día
Nightfall caught me in CarballoAnoiteceume en Carballo
To the daughters of my daughter-in-lawÁs fillas da miña nora
May they remove the meighalloQue lles quiten o meighallo

ai la le lo, ai la la loai la le lo, ai la la lo

Going out at night, I fell in the mudPor ir de noite caín na lama
For a girl I was in love withPor unha nena que namoraba
It was at night, if I go by dayFoi pola noite, se vou de día
I fought but didn't fallCa peleaba mais non caía

Because of your fault they caught minePola culpa do teu prenderon o meu
If mine had a lot of desire, yours had even moreSe o meu tiña ghana moita máis tiña o teu
Yours had even more, yours had even moreMoita máis tiña o teu, moita máis tiña o teu
Because of your fault they caught minePola culpa do teu prenderon o meu

I come from the Virgin of the BoatVeño da Virxe da Barca
I'm going to the Virgin of the MountVou para a Virxe do Monte
Boatman from MuxiaBarqueiriño de Muxia
Take me before it's nightPásame antes que sea noite

ai la le lo, ai la la loai la le lo, ai la la lo

Malpica of my lovesMalpica dos meus amores
The king wanted to sellO rei quíxote vender
To sell MalpicaPara vender a Malpica
You need a lot of moneyMoitos cartos hai que ter

ai la le lo, ai la la loai la le lo, ai la la lo
