Bhí sé Lá Pórt Láirge: Traditional Irish-language song. A light-hearted or narrative ballad referencing a day in Waterford city (Pórt Láirge).
Ó do bhíos-sa lá ‘bPort Láirge
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí lán an tí de mhnáibh ann
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus mise ag ól a sláinte
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus d’éalaigh bean ón ráth liom
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus triúr ó Thiobraid Árann
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní raibh a muintir sásta
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ní rabhadar ná leathshásta
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ó raghad don Charraig amárach
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus tabharfad cailín breá dom
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Raghamid tríd an mBearnán
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
d’Cuir fios ar shagart láithreach
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Ó do bhíos-sa lá ‘bPort Láirge
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí fíon is puins ar chlár ann
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Bhí lán an tí de mhnáibh ann
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
Agus mise ag ól a sláinte
Fol dú, fal dí, fal de didle dom
