[English translation:]

Oh gentle daughter, here come the wooing men

Oh gentle mother, put the wheels in motion for me

[Chorus:]

Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed

Seaweed from the ocean, the best in all of Ireland

There is a yellow gold head on the Gaelic seaweed

There are two blunt ears on the stately seaweed

The Irish seaweed has beautiful black shoes

The stately seaweed has a beret and trousers

[Chorus 2x]

"What are you doing here?" says the Irish seaweed

"At courting with your daughter," says the stately seaweed

I would go to Niíƒºir with the Irish seaweed

"I would buy expensive shoes," said the Irish seaweed

[Chorus]

I spent time telling her the story that I would buy a comb for her

The story she told back to me, that she is well-groomed

"Oh where are you taking my daughter?" says the Irish seaweed

"Well, I'd take her with me," says the stately seaweed

Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed

[Chorus]

Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed

Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best

Seaweed from the yellow cliff, Irish seaweed

Seaweed from the ocean, the best, the best

The best in all of Ireland
